Comprehensive Studio

     I'll keep it brief - I'm exhausted. This semester's studio is Comprehensive Studio; meaning we work in teams to design a building to code, with a structural analysis and mechanical systems (which is the next step). We are also required to produce sheets that are in accordance with the American CAD Standards(hence some of the weird formatting). My partner, Claire, and I have only worked in places that don't follow the IBC (International Building Code) so this has been a re-learning experience for us. I love working with her, which is rare because she is also a good friend of mine. It's also nice that our talents and speed are in different areas (her models and sketching, me computers).

     Since the studio as a whole does site analysis I don't have any pictured below. The project is a mixed-use, Urban infill project in the historical LoDo district of Downtown Denver. Located here. There are a lot of building restrictions that I won't get into here. The line weights are a little messy thanks to InDesign, but I'm too tired to figure out how to fix it. My apologies. Enjoy!

PS...for all you non-architecture people, the pretty colored pictures are at the end.
