1. Pass down your homework assignment. It is late if it is not at the end of the table when I collect them. Get out your notebook to take notes. April 4, 2008 U3-L2

2. U3-L1 Main House Entrance –Guests are welcomed –All major traffic patterns radiate –Readily identifiable –Provide shelter for anyone awaiting entrance Service Entrance –Any entry that’s inappropriate/inconvenient through the main entrance –Deliver supplies without going through living areas of house Entrances

3. Design: Process: The Design Process Design Process To create, fashion, execute according to a plan. A series of actions or operations leading to an end. U3-L2

4. Step 1 – Define the Project A Situation Statement says it all…. The Design Process U3-L2

5. Pick a CLIENT Step 1 – Define the Project WHO is this house for? You??? U3-L2

6. WHERE is the house located? Lakeside – where? Mountain View – where? City – where? Ocean View – where? Rural Countryside – where? Step 1 – Define the Project U3-L2

7. Needs – an Absolute Requirement What are the client’s needs? –1600 +/- 50 square feet –1-story or 2-story? –Open or Closed plan? –Kitchen, Utility, Master Bed/Bath, Living, Dining –Front and/or rear porch –Maximum view –Fireplace – 4’-0” x 2’-0” –Floor Plan, 4 Elevation Drawings, 3D Models Including furniture Step 1 – Define the Project 1550 < TOTAL AREA < 1650 1330 1440 1550 1570 1600 1649 1650 1720 1842 is bad is good is bad WHAT is the house you are designing? U3-L2

8. Wants – Desirable, but not required What are the client’s wants? –Swimming pool? –Workout room? –Game room? –2 bedrooms? 3 bedrooms? –What else? Step 1 – Define the Project U3-L2

9. Situation Statement (example page 232) 1.Who? 2.Where? 3.What? –Needs and Wants 4.How much? –Unlimited funds 5.By When? Step 1 – Define the Project U3-L2

10. Step 1 – A Situation Statement says it all…in paragraph form. Step 2 – Analyze the Project The Design Process User Analysis – a chart that breaks down the design requirements –Start with the NEEDS on top –Then add the WANTS below U3-L2

11. Start with the Needs – you have no choice Space Element # Users Min. Size (page 247) Notes and Relationships Master Bedroom 2180Window to rear garden KitchenAll120Rear exit, next to dining room Bed Room1150Away from living area ………… Step 2 – Analyze the Project NEEDS GO AT THE TOP OF THE CHART U3-L2

12. Then add wants – you can take these away Space Element # Users Min. Size (page 247) Notes and Relationships ………… Workout Rm.2?Near a bathroom. Sauna. Theater6?Away from sleeping areas ………… Step 2 – Analyze the Project NEEDS GO AT THE TOP OF THE CHART WANTS GO AT THE BOTTOM OF THE CHART

13. Will Everything Fit ?!?! Step 2 – Analyze the Project Space Element # Users Min. Size (page 247) Notes and Relationships Master Bedroom 2180Window to rear garden KitchenAll120Rear exit, next to dining room Bed Room1150Away from living area ………… Total1609 ft 2 Good! U3-L2

14. Step 1 – Define the Project Classwork/Homework: 1.Complete your Situation Statement 2.Complete your User Analysis Chart Professionally written Contains all required components Legible U3-L2

15. The Design Process Step 1 – Define the Project –Situation Statement Who? Where? What? How much? By When? Step 2 – Analyze the Project –User Analysis Chart Step 3 – Develop a Conceptual Design –Scale Representation U3-L2

16. Conceptual Design – the best response to the user analysis information. The Design Process Step 3 – Develop a Conceptual Design Transforms info. Into plans U3-L2

17. Design Constraints: –Size: _________________________ –Shape: At least 2 basic shapes; no single-shape layouts. Conceptual Design 1550 ft 2 < Area < 1650 ft 2 U3-L2

18. Review areas of basic shapes Conceptual Design Area = R L W B H p r 2 L x W ½ B x H R Area =½(p r 2 ) R Area = ¼(p r 2 ) Area = U3-L2

19. Start with a rectangle or other basic shape Give it dimensions appropriate to size constraints What is the area of that shape? _________ How much left? ____ Add another shape and dimension it. Total square footage: ___________ Conceptual Design – Example 1 40 ft. 20 ft. 800 sq. ft.800 40 ft. 20 ft. 1600 sq. ft. U3-L2

20. Start with a rectangle or other basic shape Give it dimensions appropriate to size constraints What is the area of that shape? _________ How much left? ____ Add another shape (or two). R = ???? 750 sq. ft.850 Conceptual Design – Example 2 R R 50 ft.15 ft. U3-L2

21. –Use algebra and solve for R Solving for R: –Area remaining for circles = 850 sq. ft. –What equation can we write? Beware of overlap!!! Conceptual Design - Example R R ½ p R 2 +½ p R 2 =850 ½ p R 2 +½ p R 2 =850 p R 2 = 850 pp R 2 = 271 R = 16.4 ft. U3-L2

22. Design your own. Beware of overlap! Follow these steps: –Start with a rectangle or other basic shape –Give it dimensions appropriate to size constraints –What is the area of that shape? _________ How much left? ____ –Add another shape and dimension it. –Total square footage: ___________ Conceptual Design – Practice #1 U3-L2

23. Step 1 – Define the Project Classwork/Homework: 1.Complete your Situation Statement 2.Complete your User Analysis Chart 3.Complete a conceptual design of your layout that allows for all constraints Professionally written Contains all required components Legible U3-L2

24. Say the distance between lines = 1’-0” Would a re-draw fit? If not, say the distance between lines = 2’-0” Would a re-draw fit? Conceptual Design – Scaling 1’ 2’ 3’ U3-L2

25. Homework On the second sheet of graph paper, re- draw your two designs to scale. U3-L2
