there's more...

here are some more presentation posters from midyear...




getting tangled

time seems to be getting less and less, like a trogen virus is eating away at the number of hours in the day! so... in so little time, with so much still to do, I find it has a strangling effect on me... hence "getting tangled" decisions - decisions - specifications need to be finalized! But as any designer would say... "one can never completely solve a design idea, there will always be something more to add, change and edit.







Here was the proposed conceptual design that i presented mid-year... not much has changed from layout and circulation... only the finer details and material application. since June, i have transform the 7th floor, the attic, into a Roof Top terrace garden, hence allowing even sunlight in through the multi-volume atrium and creating an interaction with the skyline within the city center.
