typical footprint / canted structure

Alright, think I got it. I will post that way, from here on out.

Thanks. I have not actually designed anything, being forced to think about this many factors, since

architecture school. My process sometimes was to hone in on details to start, then zoom out from there, then

as the building took shape(in this case a city), to go back and forth between the details and the larger form

of the project.

The drawings I've done so far have been in this method. 'Shoot(draw), and ask questions later', I guess.

I was taught that if you're not drawing, writing, or typing, etc. then you are not really thinking. Also, in the early

design stages, you were supposed to get as many ideas out as possible, which is tough, if you get stuck

on an iteration that you like.

So I hope I can jump around between different ideas, for awhile before settling on a concept.

I started drawing on the idea of a rainy day, rainy season, which led to this drawing.

-people with raincoats and umbrellas/ >

-a covered bus terminal/ (which would float on rising flood waters/ high tide) >

-bus terminal replace by exterior elevator >

-elevator design points to a canted wall >

-canted buildings

Using this yellow background because I miss the pencil on yellow trace...

One more drawing in this direction and then I plan to work some other concepts:

-sports events

-green tech/ population concerns

Thanks for the comment.

Please tell us more about this... so we can all pitch in ;)

Regardless - I like this drawing a lot for what it is... the coloring / linework

Very nice ;)
