Project 01: City Pavilion

In this project I had to choose a google map picture of different city's and I picked the city of phoenix, Arizona because in my opinion Arizona looks like a beautiful place to live in either permanent or in a vacation.

After receiving the picture I started to analyze it and finding all possible roads and draw them with marker to see them all

City Research

Project 02: A Forest Cabin

In this project I need to have a different take on a cabin design mostly because  people believe that a cabin is just a rectangle structure with everything made with wood and it may be true, but I believe a cabin can look more beautiful and complex than just a boring and simple structure

I've been researching the east part of Texas about it's environment, community, and climate to determine the conditions to live in east Texas and it was tough getting information about it due to mostly being the same information but found what I could for the research.

Concept Design 

When I first started my concept design I first started doodling random lines until I saw a building in the doodle and added a bit of touches so it can look like a house,

When i was drawing a concept design I started by just scribbling on the paper randomly then I stopped that's when I took a good look at the sketch I saw a building in it, So I started adding some touches to make it look like a house like windows a door etc. And I though it was good when it goes with my site plan.
But then decided that didn't like the design and didn't fit in my site plan so I started all over again until I come up with concept design 2 and looks a bit like the first one but with minor changes and that's how I finalize on my concept design.

Final Design

After finishing the concept design I started working on my final design by making a floor plans for the building I decide to go for a 2nd floor building because I always liked 2nd floor building in my opinion they look beautiful, then I was done with the floor plans I started imputing the floor map in the site plan to see how it would like and it was perfect in my point of view.
