1:200 Sequentials - Draft

I'm a bit slow getting these on here but these are my 1:200 draft sequential. Please ignore the colour as its all from my sketch up model and not representative of how the final images look at all, just really there for me to distinguish between surfaces and elements.

The end is in sight...

So yesterday was our last lesson with Jamie pre final crit pin up, armed with a list as long as your arm (maybe longer!) it's now a case of just getting stuff done. The 2 week countdown clock is well and truly ticking! I fear a bumpy ride ahead...

Water jets - in or out...

Precedent images from Bordeaux Riverfront (top), and Granary Square, Kings cross. Both look pretty nice I think, but is Tunbridge Wells ready for it?? Jamie thinks not...

1:200 Design Freeze

So this week marks the point at which we have reached a design freeze in the 1:200 phase, for most anyway! For me, I feel like I have a lot of resolving still to go on my plan to get the design right before I can stop playing around with it. Just as I think it's moving in the right direction I seem to take another step back. In general I'm fairly happy with the shapes and the linking circulation, but I seem to be lacking content for the spaces, with my main concern being athe park ending up with a lot of bleak empty open space. Not ideal.

Introduce some water jets, and areas for water to collect and form mirror pools, yesterday morning was a great idea, buy yesterday afternoon what was I thinking!...

This week has to be the week I get my plan into a position I am 100% (well at least 90 something %) happy with (make it 80 something)...

We're also producing lighting and drainage overlays this week, but clearly I need everything resolved and where I want it to be so that the new overlays make sense. I feel a couple of late nights coming on...
