Harmony against Conflicts

 
 

Pre-final presentation ..

As Joe published the dimensions of presentation panels last week, I decided to start them earlier this time to avoid any silly surprises before the deadline and see if one of my supervisors can have a look on it before final printing ..

 

 

 

 

I met Bhav today and got a couple of beneficial comments that I need to rethink about..

I'll try to finish them tonight, HOPFULLY,  and might meet her tomorrow again..

Prefinal interim ..

Today was the pre-final review.. 

 

 

 

I received some positive feedback, and some negative ones, however I still believe that they will make the project better

 

Positive:

- Project size and arrangement is under control

- Finally, I felt the suitable size of projects ( Woohooo !)

- I've a done a bit lot in the work quantity wise.

-Model is good.

 

Negative:

-Can't see the main concept ( Way finding or social conflicts )

- Make the visuals less real.

- Add people and context.

- Try to take a people to the cafe' area in the pool with out passing the swimming pool with their dirty feet.

- The site has to be bigger.

- Furniture in the plan lighter.

I've been to Maudslay this morning to cut the model finally after the delay. Material shop was closed during August, and 118 is closed as well.. Any way I found my way to do it :)
