Project:
Artist Studio, Venice, California |

Approach: Utilizing vrml models which I posted on the internet, the client was able to interactively partake in the design process. I modeled the structural system first to serve as the frame for the rest of the design investigations. This medium was used for everything from exterior design studies to structural mock-ups and composites of the 3d model within the environment used for city and community approvals. |
|
Innovation: The 3d model was our primary design tool. We used rendered plans to get through preliminary plan checks. We then cut sections of this model as the base for the entire set of construction documents that we produced. This project exhibits many pragmatic approaches to sustainable design and exemplifies the flexibility of the digital design process.
