Assignment-Main House continued. Work on the program for the main floor, focus on connecting to the site, and outdoor spaces.
Process-The seamless transition from the inside space to outside is really important on this site. The outdoor space is one the clients will use as an extension of the small inside space, and the large surrounding meadow is an extension of their property lines.

Then we had to add colored pencil. . . .

Thoughts-The downstairs floor plan is a little cramped to get the program in, I omitted certain aspects that detracted from the overall scheme and made sure to includes mechanical storage for the solar batteries and water catchment!
Using colored pencil is still a very weak part in my artistic repertoire. I lost the contrast that I had with just the pencil rendering, it did add a bit of materiality, but it didn't seem very successful, next time I will try to just represent aspects of the material, and leave the rest of it pencil rendered with shading. Really subtle colors may help keep it from looking like a cartoon drawing as well.
