Hey guys!

Here’s a link to my Assignment H.  In the module diagrams, I investigated, sunlight, natural elements, North Orientation, circulation, private/public as well as other elements.  Although focusing on each individual module as an independent element was out of the norm, I practiced viewing each space a lone by adding exterior spaces to them and overlapping the interior and exterior fields.  I also used the white water and brown land of the topography along with my brown massing and white floor plans to practice figure/ground reversal.  I included my module studies for the given program, my final modules design in relation the topography, different views of the topography, a general sketch of the chosen layout as well as module descriptions. Please let me know what you think or if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Melissa Leyba

Hey guys!

Here’s a link to my Assignment F.  To better understand our climate research in relation to my Hot-Humid climate, I decided to choose a specific location, Louisiana and specific architectonic programs in relation to specific program type.  Please let me know what you think or if you have any questions.

Thanks,
