• Experience:
  • For this week, I got back into the swing of things after taking a month-long break to prepare for the fall semester. I extended my internship from the spring semester into the summer, where I had the chance to work on a variety of projects, such as storefront and alum-clad wood window details for an amenity center, RCPs and unit plans for a residential building, and the entire pro-bono design process for a community center in Edisto Island (which began as a CACC spring studio project that LS3P took over). Coming back into the office, I had the chance to reconnect with my coworkers and complete training and Revit tutorials, allowing me to improve my software skills and knowledge. I am excited to continue this internship, which will enable me to deepen my understanding of architecture and improve my craft by exposing myself to various projects. 

 

Snippets from the Pro-Bono Design Presentation Set for Edisto Island’s Community Center

Here is an example of a project that I completed over the summer. This was my favorite project that I have worked on at LS3P so far. My mentor gave me the opportunity to work on the entire pro-bono design for Edisto Island’s Community Center. I completed the entire Revit model, plans, perspectives, and presentation sets from start to finish under the guidance of my mentor. This project was an interesting experience for me because I was exposed to the pro-bono design process which I never had the opportunity to take part in yet until now. So, I am grateful that I broadened my knowledge about architecture through this project.
