For next week


  1. Complete the 3D Precinct model. Simple block massing.
  2. Write a reflective paragraph on your sense of what RMIT building design is like. Spaces, conditions, the atmosphere of studying in building 94.
    1. After experiencing RMIT, Building 8,16,80,94, 100; the pixel building and Melbourne Design School, what atmosphere do you hope to achieve with your building design proposal.
  3. As I type this my legs still have not forgiven me for the 4hours+ of walking that I led yesterday.

DESIGN: MP:02

Apologies for the garbled way the class started.
Results from the previous project are being worked on now.
Again it is really important to get started on this one as quickly as possible.

In groups, start modelling the Site.
For the next class, bring a camera so we can start looking for typological elements that can be used as a feeder to the design concept.
Also take a look online at the references mentioned above.

WD Project Task

This is what is needed for WD.
Image from class notes
























Notes for above:
The mark up set should be printed @1:1, not reduced.
There should be evidence that a correct 'workflow' has been used.
printout->markup->correction.

Time Sheets are beneficial for ma AND you. Get into the habit of doing them.

Job files are not digital padding, they are used to give the builder a precise understanding of your design intent. A material or element selected by you may have a specific method or sequence required to be used correctly in your project.
Don't just give generic abbreviations, research the elements you intend to use.
