So, amongst other projects that I have been working on, there has been one in particular that I've mentioned before that I (up to now) have been working on non-stop throughout this year and it included a full set of plans for this office building of 148 squared metres that will be built from ground up in 2013. I have just plotted the entire set of plans for council submission and tendering. I know it sounds crazy that it took so long but this process was gruelling and consisted of a back-and-forth approach from the client especially...also mainly influenced by the budget.
The design was changed numerous times and that ofcourse led to me having to change EVERYTHING in accordance several times. Alot of the construction had to be changed as it could no longer work and we also added a safe and cash register rooms which was something I learnt a great deal about as the proper safety measures had to be constructed. I luckilly then explored different construction methods from this process so even though my projects in my portfolio arent as many as some, I have been working throughout on this project working with alternative methods, things that work and dont work and seeing how the budget influences a design and ways of going around that.
So, now that that's done, I dont really have anything to do but Lisa has said that she's going to be starting me on another project as she avoids me sitting without work. The only crap part is that I wont have it in my portfolio that is due friday but Im sure what I have is enough.
This is our last submission and Im feeking like a 3rd year student already. Bring it on!!
