Nico Gennardo: Architectural Design I

This project is the Fibonacci Spiral. We had to draw it on a piece of paper. We used a compass and a Lead holder to draw this drawing. This project was used to help us understand how to design a pavilion for day laborers it helped us with the ration of our 3 plane models

Drawings and Model

We were given pieces of cardboard ranging from 2'' x3'', 2''x5'' , 5''x8'' sizes. We had to make 3 plane models with these sizes of cardboard. each model could only have 1 of each size and it had to relate to one of the words we chose and be able to be made or perceived as a pavilion. For my final model I chose to stick with my third one Apprentice. I had my model stand vertical giving it a more rectangular shape in the end. My model relates to day labor because a day laborer could be seen as a Apprentice like someone who is doing it for a small amount of time to get experience in a certain field before they go into a more full time job.

On the left is the Plan Oblique Drawing of my final model. On the right is my Final Cube: Model. On the left we drew our models at an angle so we would see multiple sides In 1 drawing. And on the right image where I placed my Final model I positioned it like my drawing to help show the resemblance.
