Description
Thesis Model: Showing Building Closeups1/8"=1'-0" (model is 3'x4' )
Plywood, Basswood, Plexiglass, Assorted Materials
My thesis was to design a building in which different factions of Christianity could come together over service to their community instead of theology and worship. I found my opportunity in the Christian student organizations at UTA. The organizations cover the entire spectrum of the Christian church, from Catholic to Pentacostal, but all provide the same services to the campus (free lunch, international ministries, general hangout area). Other more practical benefits include: united leaverage towards the University, efficiency of space use over the week, and a central active location.
I will post more pictures and update existing one as soon as I can.

Plywood for the base and context
Basswood for the majority of the model
Plexiglass for the transparent parts
A bit of styrene for the white
Mesh for window screens for the louvers
Dried Babies Breath for the trees

Thanks.
A semester doing research and a semester designing and building. The actual model was done in about two weeks.
