Block diagram with circulation paths

I am going to be moving things around a bit, but here is what I have so far:

the purple spaces are classrooms or offices, dark green represents breakout spaces (each break out space is on the upper level, there are offices below), the red represents open workspaces such as tables or desks, the aqua represents kitchen/artist library area, light green is the lounge space, yellow represents conference areas (large and small), and lastly the orange represents teacher offices.

the back of the building will be used for docking and emergency exits only. The public will enter through the front. I am considering reorienting the offices so that they are against the back wall, making the lounge the focal point upon entering the office.

Dialux model and lighting focus

Using the dialux model of my retail space, I was able to determine how many lights the space would require and at what interval to place the fixtures.  The Receptionist/Checkout counter in the Retail portion of the building features moving, colored light. The GE Immersion color changing LED (typically used for jewelry display cases to provide a bright, uniform light) works on a link system allowing the light fixture to be arranged along a tight curve or awkward angle. It offers the added benefits of long life, advanced thermal management, worry-free maintenance, and reliability. By using an LED fixture, which could be easily arranged in tight spaces, the receptionist desk can be dressed in waves of colored light. These waves of changing color represent the company’s need, ability, and desire to change with needs of their professional market. The Maxis retail store uses a minimalistic color palette and rectilinear forms for fixture displays, which help to further distinguish the ...

Ascension Catholic - Pavilion revisited after design completion

As my friends and family know, I am always updating my representational documents.  I have completed my new business card design, new resume, and new portfolio design complete with cover page.  In other good news, Google finally fixed the blog! I am back to working with Ascension Catholic School.  We made the building smaller and did away with the design phases.  The parents want something that can be built all at once.  We are not going to be able to call it the "New Pavilion Building" anymore.  The pavilion stage is history. Originally the design was broken down into 3 phases for budgeting purposes. PHASE ONE: This phase is a metal structure that would provide shelter from rain for sporting events.  PHASE TWO: This phase encloses the basketball court, making the facility more professional. PHASE THREE: In this phase an office area is added to the front of the building, and locker rooms are added on the back.  This is intended to be...
