Thinktank Museum

Today I visited the Thinktank Museum. The museum itself didn't have a lot on architecture but I was able to get lots of texture rubbings and pictures of the building and other buildings around Birmingham which were very interesting and helpful for research.

Posters and Brochures

For both of these topics I took existing pieces and annotated them. Showing the advantages and disadvantages of what they are trying to portray. I have to wait for my final pieces because i would like to put some of my renders in as images. 

What I can do before is produce layouts of what is needed for my poster and Brochure.

Flythrough research

I have researched into 4 Flythroughs. Two flythroughs are taken from the Archiform website which is a well known architecture pre-visualization site. I have researched into their: 

Camera movements 

Lighting 

Audio

Resolution

What is being filmed 

Timing

All these components are very important because i will need them to be right for my flythrough 

Floor Plan complete

Floor plans

Finished design without color texture visualization.

Floor Plan Research

I started to research into different floor plans showing the difference between really simple ones to high quality color ones. I then used illustrator to start my floor plan experimentation. 

Interior design

Today i visited several interior design shops to view their designs and take brochures and catalogues for research
