In the final project for concluding the courses “Design Implementation I and II”, students were made to select a building from a given list, research it, and produce a digital mock-up of it. The only software that could be utilized was ArchiCAD. This project worked as a means of honing the student’s observation skills and practicing critical thinking in regards to material selection and construction techniques. For this assignment, the team selected the “Ensamble Factory” building from Ensamble Studios. This decision was made based on the structure’s clean facade detail, particularly its use of technicolor elements and simple forms to produce a mosaiced pattern. For the deliverable, the team had to provide real imagery of the building and three axons, one put together (with and without scale figures) and the other exploded with labels.
