Finally finished

Slightly sleep deprived but hopefully it was worth it. Its good to see all my hard work up on the wall and what I have achieved. I'm happy with it hope you all like it to.
although glad its over I don't think my nerves could take anymore worrying and stress.

Finals 1:50





Lighting plan

How the park will work at night! lighting is important to atmosphere and I have gone for low lighting as park not used unless for events.

Master plan 1:200

wow time goes so fast in between posts!! seems like yesterday i put the 1:500 up how fast time  flies and I'm finding i hard to keep up !!!
But here it is the fruit of my labour my 1:200 scale of Shoreditch park. hope the rendering is ok its not my strongest suit. I much prefer shading with black and white. How dull do i sound!! i love colour really but when it comes to drawing black and white its just what I'm best at but I'm learning but not fast enough it seems!! we will get there soon enough.

masterplan 1:500

What a leap from a sketch to a design!! Its so thrilling to watch your design slowly evolve into something else. It become more refined with each new precedence, each new idea the design grows. However rendering its proving to be difficult, the hardest part in my case!! But got there in the end! Even when things feel impossible and daunting its always  achievable!!
My 1:500 is finished and been hanged!!! The lovely and totally non-intimidating name to the marked pin up!! But here it is the the finished product of the 1:500 scale.

Shoreditch park masterplan started!!

Masterplan project is finally starting. Went on a site visit and got totally lost on the way, rubbish sense of direction in London. I blame public transport makes me feel better.
First impressions:
Site is very open - wind will be an issue
mostly compacted soil - from the sports played here.
Over all very dull, open, and unappreciated.
