Powelton Apartment Complex
Winter 2016 | Studio | Mixed Residential Apartments
The site for this project is located at 36th Street and Powelton Avenue, and is currently the home of the Powelton Elementary School. First I was assigned a group and together we created a site analysis document, specifically referring to the circulation around the site. Then working with the same group, we created site documentation, in which I worked on the site plan using AutoCAD and Photoshop. I then was assigned a new, four person group to start the design of the apartment. After about two weeks, our group of four split into groups of two which allowed us to focus more clearly on the specifics of our design. All of the final drawings were created using AutoCAD and Photoshop, as well as Illustrator, Sketcup, and Maxwell. This was also the first time I took a look at building codes and put together a building code analysis form.
