Archicad Modelling

After spending several hours over the weekend drawing up my design on archicad, the building has changed in several different ways. Seeing the spaces in 3D form gives me a clearer idea of the design and also seeing the materials in a real life perspective has helped me to decide on colours and appropriate textures. 


First stage of modelling
Model with cliff face situated directly behind 
Addition of the orange glass

Addition of the black timber cladding on exterior of the building
I have decided to incorporate a curving walkway that acts as a shading device over the interior courtyard and outdoor exhibition space and also connects directly onto the brisbane river as a city cat stop. The walkway will eventually lead up to the top level being the green roof over the entire building. This space could be perfect for a bar / cafe area as the views are optimal and with appropriate shading / wind protection it could be a great public space.
