DESIGN+BUILD PROJECTS BY CLEMSON COMMUNITY BUILD
Today in studio, we had the opportunity to meet with the James Island community and neighbors of Stephen Washington Park to share our small group designs. Each of the three small groups presented the proposals, showing our models and boards to the community. Everyone brought a lot of excitement and encouragement, which made the review [...]
Today, the small groups are making a final push for our presentation tomorrow. Tomorrow, each of the three groups must present their pavilion idea to Jason and Rodney from the city, and two community leaders who will critique our designs and provide us with thoughts and feedback. Most groups finished their deliverables over the weekend, [...]
There was actually no glue sniffin... Our group is so close to finishing our individual design! We worked together over the weekend to collect the design deliverables for our presentation to the community which is this Tuesday and Wednesday. Our project focuses on the pavilion and playground connection acting as the “epicenter” of park activity. [...]
As we have been working through our small group design phase, the buzzword in the studio has been "iterate". We are all trying to work through this repetitive phase of communicating design ideas, combining perspectives, narrowing down a design goal and narrative, and iterating through variations of these concepts to create the best possible solution [...]
This week in studio is all about working together as a small group to come up with another pavilion design, which will ultimately provide us with another round of critiques before moving forward with a final design for a new park structure at Stephen Washington Park. I've been teamed up with Madison and Jake, and [...]
This past weekend and Monday, the studio saw a few busy nights of work in preparation for our individual design presentations with the city, this afternoon. Each of us has spent time sketching out several iterations of design concepts, focusing on either the future pavilion’s relationship with the play structure at Steven Washington Park, or [...]
This past weekend we have been focusing on our individual designs for our pin-up this Tuesday. A few of us spent all weekend in the studio, narrowing down our presentation boards and models. Our boards will be composed of a site plan, diagrams, perspective views, sections and precedent images to tell the story of our [...]
This week, we have been working on our individual design concepts for the development of Stephen Washington Park. It has been interesting to see all the different directions that the studio is pursuing through this design phase. I am in the group that is diving into designs based on integrated development in the playground. We [...]
Design work has officially commenced in Studio V! Today, the class had a discussion recapping our client meeting from last week and the two site strategies that will be explored moving forward -- "In the play area" and "between the play area and baseball". The class was randomly split into these two groups, and as [...]
This week marks the transition from collective exploration to individual concept development within our pavilion design project. After having a successful review with Jason and Rodney, we are now taking all of the information and wants from from the city to design our own concept pavilions. The move toward individual concept design represents an important [...]
