Pretty Colors and Textures
This last Friday we went out to the site to do a mock-up of our design for underneath the interstate. We used chalk, tape, and stakes to mark out where important elements of the design would go; we also took measurements to find a good scale for the design. In mine, I show the altering heights of the platforms I want to install under one direction of the interstate. I also show the depth and length of the channel I wanted to have run in front of the platforms. In doing this, I did realized that the extremely long length of the channel became monotonous and needs to be broken up in the design. I also tried to show the extension of the street in front of George’s to accomodate parking that I have running along the underneath of the interstate entrance ramp. Marking out the design really let me see my ideas come to life and it helped me to make decisions that will better and further my design.
