Mosman 3:Design Development

How 3 designs were combined into one.

Initially, we agreed to take Munya's design (re:week 9/10 initial drawings) as our main design feature,and Ilya's roofing system( for the roofing system) as well as Kartina's water feature concept into the design. So we've taken the pros and cons from each of our design and combined it into one.

And oh,not to forget, we did take into consideration as well the comments from the client group and the tutors.

Munya's design(Comments from the client group and tutor(alex)
-great design.
-not too sure about the location of the rooms and bathrooms
-great ventilation system

Ilya's design
-great roofing system
-the tutor also commented on the glass windows,he suggested glass windows should be put to all north windows and eaves should be installed where the windows are located.
-she has used concrete as her main material ,and the tutor commented on that saying with concrete houses like these it is not a good idea to use stilts.


Kartina's design
-good water feature -for cooling effect
-comments from the client group:the site is independant.(must find source for electricity and water)
-too much space used(minima concept should be applied)


So,we the pros and cons,we've decided to analyse more on how to make the house:
a)energy sufficient
b)minimal
c)cool ( and thats because its hotter during summer and we would like to concentrate on the main criteria of this climate--hot-dry)
