- The overall building layout was inspired by the presence of open space allowing visitors to easily flow between different areas of the building.
- There is one entrance in the front of the building (closest to the city) and another in the back (closest to the water) to allow visitors to come from both sides and easily flow through the space. The circulation elements (stairs, elevators) are in the front of the building, closest to the city section near the main entrance. These are located near the bathrooms and storage on all the floors.
- I also added a patio space for the cafe on floor 2, and because the first floor is at grade there are no stairs and ramps needed at the moment

- A link to your personal folder (containing your Revit model files) within our shared Autodesk Construction Cloud Project
For 2 units
For this check-in you’ll create:
- Space Budget — a list that identifies the functions and dimensions of all the programmed spaces in your proposed design.
- Building Layout — a sketch or bubble diagram that shows the spaces in your proposed design with the connections between them as well as connections to exterior spaces.
- Building Model — an initial building model. This first model will have a very low level of detail (LOD 200), using generic walls to indicate the preliminary sizes and locations of the major programmed spaces (based on your space budget and building layout diagram). Include the:
- Exterior Walls — use generic walls to indicate the preliminary location of the exterior wall surfaces (don’t worry about modeling the windows, glazing features, and materials now -- you’ll do that next week in Module 7).
- Interior Walls — use generic walls to indicate the preliminary location of the interior wall surfaces (again, don’t worry about modeling the interior doors and architectural features -- you’ll do that in future weeks as you continue to design and refine your model).
For 3 units
Add these elements to your initial building model:
- Building Cores and Circulation Elements — place stairs and generic walls to indicate:
- the preliminary locations of the building cores (stair and elevators shafts)
- circulation spaces (corridors and hallways)
- and utility spaces (public restrooms and mechanical rooms)
For 4 units
Add these elements to your initial building model:
- Building Envelope Big Features
- Exterior Entrances and Exits — place doors to showing the access and egress locations.
- Exterior Terraces or Patios
- Exterior Stairs or Ramps
