WEEK TWO: Development Ideas #2 - Making Studies

Making studies of a sketched idea is a way of developing that idea that would help in understanding every aspect of the design, this was what we were asked to do after the Development Ideas #1 task. 

As a continuation of where I stopped in the previous blog post, I will be sharing how I came across the Connecticut River and how that led to the decision to use that shape as the shape of my design in this blog.

The image above is a screenshot from Google Maps showing the Connecticut River just along the side of Cromwell (the town where the site of my project is located. When I saw this shape I thought it would work well with my set project, having an inner courtyard with could work as the outdoor exhibition space while having a nice flow. 

This idea led to me sketching the shape of the river as some in img 2 below, and then afterward I moved to the creation of some studies.

The studies were made in the form of elevation drawings. I made a from rear and side view shown in img 3, 4, and 5 respectively

As a continuation of this, I will begin to do my initial research to back and boost my design ideas
