9 Clear Steps to Design a Building
9 Clear Steps to Design a Building
This is a series of 9 architectural drawings with accompanying text, outlining the steps involved in designing a multi-level building.
Steps
- Location: The first step involves finding a location for the building. The text specifies that the site is a regular 250-meter field.
- Extrude: The second step involves extruding the foundation of the building to a specific height.
- Subtract: A section of the building is subtracted, likely to create space for a courtyard or lightwell.
- Divide: Divide the volume into individual volumes, each one referring to a specific activity.
- Stick Out: Make the upper level stick out, possibly cantilevered over the lower level, in accordance with municipal laws.
- Push Up: Push a vertical cubic volume upwards to form the staircase and define the entrance.
- Entrance: The creation of the entrance.
- Facade: The positioning of windows on the building’s facade.
- Final: The final step shows the completed building with windows positioned on the facade.
It is important to note that this represents a simplified and conceptual process of architectural design. Real-world architectural design is a complex process that involves many more steps, considerations, and professional expertise.
