IN CLASS AND AT HOME
Following the class site visit to Beatty Biodiversity Museum, I decided to use it as the study site for Assignment 3. I started off by drawing the location of the catacombs in relation to main mall and the ramp.
This museum is not very busy – this is maybe due to the lack of visibility from Main Mall. The entrance itself is ot well marked and kind of hard to see.
I decided to draw some of the main attractions contained within the museum and the flow that people may take to walk through the space.
I also wanted to show the relationship between the green roofs and water flow within the space:
Finally, after reading about the museum online, I realized that they had intentionally let their green roof get overgrown in order to attract pollinators! I decided to show how polinations may use the roof space.
To try something new, I decided to make this into an animation. Unfortunately, there is no more storage space for the GIF on this blog so I decided to put it on youtube:
Had I done the drawings with an animation in mind, I may have approached the assignment a bit differently.
