Replace this text with your reflections on your design journey through class from a higher level and share your insights about the entire experience. What were:
- Key / Essential / Unique Design Features that you explored in your project.
- vertical urban farming on 2nd floor
- green roof with solar panels, atrium
- central atrium for daylighting
- outdoor spaces on each floor
- Your Big Successes
- shading features on curtain walls
- curved cutout to showcase views of the Statue of Liberty
- roof design
- natural lighting
- biophilic design
- glulam structure
- daylighting
- green roof
- views
- Your Big Challenges -- what aspects of the project created the biggest challenges and what would you do differently (in hindsight) to avoid or overcome these challenges.
- structural elements — design architectural features with structural members in mind.
- HVAC & plumbing — place the mechanical room closer to the center of the building, so I wouldn’t have to route the pipes and ducts as far. For HVAC, this would also be better to have smaller ducts for distribution as well.
- such large curtain walls required triple-glazed, low-e glass for insulation which would be very expensive in practice.
- also curious about thermal comfort and glare from these.
- Lessons Learned -- what sage words of advice would you share with other students who are embarking on a similar project.
- consider all the systems you need to incorporate when you are doing your initial design.
- explore different material options beyond defaults
- i wish i changed the interior wall material and maybe played with the exterior wall materials as well.
