Affordable House Project Designer: Michael Boarman Client: Ben Hammersten

1. In this project we designed a house for my client, doing exactly what they wanted, but also being green too.
2. I learned how to build a house. My favorite part was building the house.

When I went to upload this and pieces of my project where missing including the sectional wall piece with the labeling on which was not there anymore. So if you want me to redo it I will, but I did it to begin with, but I guess it didnt save.

1. My project was to design a shed and create the indiviual pieces of the shed and put them together. I designed a shed using revit.
3. I learned how to create stuff on Autodesk Revit.
Finding out what does what.
It helps prepare us for future projects where we will be using Revit.

My partner  and I created a leveld gable roof showing each level of the roof. We used popsicle sticks, hot glue, cotton balls, sandpaper, and cardboard to make our roof. It is very sturdy and is made to perfection.

Refelction: I learned how to make a roof. I liked building the roof and designing it. I didnt dislike anything. I would put more work into the sheeting of my roof.



Fact Sheet:

1. Our project was to take a wooded area and make it into a 150 home complex.
I learned how to make a 2-d design and sketch of a building. I didnt really like anything. I didnt like that  we didnt have enough time. I would hange the timeline so the students can go into more detail and inspire them to do better drawings.

Architecture Project Reflection and video

The project that i was assigned was to try and contact an actual architect and ask him some basic questions about his job and his atmosphere at his work place. We analyzed architecture and civil engineering and we talked about the similarities and differences.
My contact was Jak Boarman BKV group
Reflection:
I learned alot about the life of an architect. I like talking to the actual architect and learing about his line of work. I didnt dislike anything. I wouldnt do anything differently.

Project Reflection

My project was the architectural style saltbox. It is a simplitstic home made of sharp edges and  no curves. It also contains small windows and overall a basic home. There are many oif these homes but no new slatboxes are being built a the time.

Reflection:
I learned how saltbox homes are built and their unique characteristics.
I like how easy it was to build a saltbox home.
I didnt dislike anything.
Spend more time on my model.

Architectual Styles

The project was to research and describe a different type of Architectual style. Find out all the informations and what the residance or building would look like and materials to make it. It was quick and easy and painless. I didnt dislike anything about this project. I would probably increase the difficculty.
