Matt,

The model is there, now focus on the interior. The lables don't provide enough info about things like vertical circulation, and the rest. They point to no where and are confusing at best. Make sure your plans truley reflect the model. CUrrently the exterior walls are all rendered the same and in the same plane. In fact, the lower level plan should be narrower than the upper level. Consider how the opening punched through the floor responds to the front of the building. The exterior space warps and folds, the billowing walls allow that to happen on the interior, but the quarter circle may not be the right response. I think the right angle edges are correct, but the curve pushing toward the front doesn't sit quite right. maybe a gentle arc inward, not quite the same radius as the front facade, but somewhere in between.

Ted,

Thanks for the comments. I was planning on pulling the bridge off the front facade gradually in each of the succeeding floor plans. I would like to introduce a twist in the open space that would read ever so slightly. I will post something late tonight showing the thickness of the walls and developed interior space.

Matt,
You have been a posting machine this week! You’re taking the reigns huh? Well I want to say I am so happy with the progress of the project. I think Ted’s comment about the columns extruding through the roof was a good eye. Your building is such a sculptural element I don’t believe there are strong restrictions for your building. The last post of the multiple level columns is very strong.

As far as your interiors, I agree with Ted. I think they need more work. Your exterior elements are very sculptural and I feel the interior elements should have similar aspects. Especially when it comes to the circulation. I can’t wait to see what your next post. Keep pushing the ideas like you did with the clay for the interior elements. We only have a week left. Where did the time go?
