WEEKLY REFLECTION

This week I learned about coordination of a project where the architect is hired by the landscape architect. The New Riverside Barn project I have been working on falls under this category and we had our first deadline on Tuesday. Once our renderings and drawings were complete we packaged everything in InDesign in our own presentation format as well as into a drawing template we received from them. Later the next day we received their files along with our drawings incorporated into them. It was very exciting to see the beautiful drawings they had developed paired with our concept sketches.

On Tuesday I also had another CA School session with Tommy which covered a ton of information. My biggest take away was from the quiz I took on drawing a detail section of an exterior brick wall and what to/what not to wrap when installing a door frame into that wall.

Thursday I began a new project which is a redevelopment of a lot in West Ashley. We are working with a developer for this project – which was awarded to us just before I joined the office. I spent the day working with Sarah and Dinos to develop building massing that sat appropriately on the site. This site is very interesting because it sits on two relatively dangerous roads intersecting one another. This led to the buildings anchoring to one side of the site and allowing for pedestrian activity internally.
