Using the flowalongsurf function

This is a design concept for a bus stop using the flowalongsurf function.

Scale

Hello Professor,
The floorplans of the Kunsthal building will not fit on an 11x17 at 1/16" scale. I was thinking of using 1/32", is that ok?

Whitney Museum Elevations

I'm having trouble finding more than two elevations for the Whitney Museum. Do you have any suggestions on finding more or has anyone else found all four elevations?
Thanks

Do not think about this as gratuitous form, but rather think about the potential abilities that the modules can have, for example, in response to solar conditions, or as water catchments, as planters etc etc, and ultimately at what scale they are applied..whether it is at the scale of the canopy or at the scale of a building...you decide.

This is a quick and easy experiment....so post a printscreen sometime soon.  And don't all use the same module we used in class..that was just an example.  Think about the function of your module and how it operates at an isolated scale, then think about how it functions as a conglomerate.

Remember to have your midterm material ready.
I will be around Saturday after 12pm to help.

NOW YOU GUYS PLAY WITH THE FLOW!!   :)

I'm having huge amounts of difficulty finding a detail for the MAS. If you could help me that would be awesome....

Scaling

Professor,
The drawings that I'm using as the xref have a scale that is in meters. I wanted to verify that I did the scaling correct. I opened the file as the xref and I used 3.28084 as the scale factor.

Assignment No. 2 Projects

Assignment No. 2 Projects :

These assignments are split by First Letter of your Last Name.  If you would like a different project, you can either take one of the alternatives or trade your project with someone else in class.  You MUST inform me that you are trading projects so that I may mark it down as such.  In the event of a trade, BOTH parties must write the projects being traded in the comments below.

The project selected will also be part of Assignments No. 5 + 6 (Rhino Modeling Assignments). I suggest that you work together with anyone else that has the same building so that you may, together, find any relevant drawings / elevations / photographs / books to share.  However, all drawings and work turned in must be YOUR OWN.
