This week's main focus will be on building sections (1/8") and facade sections (1/2"). While the building sections address the vertical relation (stairs, multiple height spaces, light and program) between the floors and their relation to the facade (=views), the facade sections show a. the programmatic activities along the building edge and b. how they relate to the views outside and the natural daylight. Both section types will also impact the way the building will be seen from the public space (day- night views)
Task
Cut two building sections that show the building and the adjacent street side. Choose the location wisely in order to show vertical circulation and key relations to the exterior (entry, views,facade orientation). The facade sections are details of those sections and should identify materials, depth and layering of the facade and activities on the building's interior and the side walk.
You will need to also work in plan (focus for next week) in order to get there.
Don't forget your narratives and use these drawings to make your point clear, both as it relates to the site and the program.
If you use hard line drawings, please make sure to lavishly sketch over them to indicate the atmosphere and activities within the building. 3D model cut are OK, but need to be annotated as well. The drawings should not look like from an SD set, but be informative, suggestive and poetic.
