Assignment for Friday

Based on your category of research and design study develop a minimum of three (3) prototypes.  You will need to show all 4 walls the floor and ceiling.  You can do this with traditional plans and elevations but I would prefer these as isometrics if possible.

You will need to identify all surfaces and materials.  What is the lighting?  Where are the windows and what to they look like?  What are the materials?  How inventive can you be?  Do you meet the program requirements?  What furniture or appliances are you using or are you designing something custom?

Put your presentation into a PowerPoint or PDF for class presentation on Friday.
