VINEYARD PROJECT

This week so far has been a rather quiet one, as i have just been given the task to make a few changes to the sketchup model that i have busy with previously.
Changes that i had to make:
1.  Change the residential houses from separate smaller buildings to four larger buildings that accommodate the same amount of living spaces.
2.  Then i had to change the topography of my sketchup model. the ground level under the residential houses slopes up drastically at the back, allowing one of the facades to appear single story, and the opposite facade to appear double story, with the lower level being parking.
3.  Another change that i had to make was to add windows and doors to more of the buildings.
4.  I also had to change the trees that were on the model because, the trees that i had previously used were very dimensional and blotchy looking.
5. I had to add pergola's to some of the buildings.


This is the plan of the site that i had to bring to life via sketchup. Unfortunately one cannot see it very well, regardless of how much i tried to zoom in.

The pictures below, are of my updated sketchup design that will be sent off to the client today:)

Main garden in the office park, with trees and a water fountain at the centre of the stair that lead to the grass.

A view of the back of the residential buildings, showing the topography change from high to low. This view also shows the pergolas for each living section of the residential buildings.

The opposite view of the residential buildings, showing the downward slope of the topography as well as the underground parking.

This image illustrates an eye level view of the main pedestrian walkway that runs through the length of the entire office park.

This view illustrates all the different rooftop levels of the different buildings in the office park.

Another view of the entire office park from a different angle.

This image illustrates ab eye level view down one of the roads in the office park. One can once again see the underground parking level under the residential buildings as well as the water fountain situated next to it.

Hopefully there won't be anymore drastic changes after all my hard work!!!
