Concept Board Presentation

Friday. The day we present our revised poster boards.

The new poster board we were to include the following:
  • 11x17 board with ideation components
    • STEP 1 - One paragraph  about what NEXT University wants for their learning environment (100-200 words)
      • Please make sure you use Steelcase language
      • 3-5 key (most significant) Steelcase words/phrases highlighted in some way (bold type, larger font, Italics, etc.)
    • STEP 2 - Translation of these key words/phrases into architectural strategies/components/design principles/design features
      • This can be shown in table format
      • Multiple architectural strategies/components/design principles/design features per word/phrase
    • STEP 3 - A label for spaces that might exhibit these characteristics (implementation of the desired architectural strategies/components/design principles/design features) - this is your concept metaphor
      • Think: NEXT University is like a ___________  because it ____________________________________.  
    • STEP 4 - 1-3 photographs of existing INTERIOR spaces that show these  architectural strategies/components/design principles/design features
    • STEP 5 - Carefully composed board that carries through your design intentions
    • 3-D embodiment of your concept metaphor
      • STEP 6 - Sculptural object/model that expresses the architectural strategies/components/design principles/design features identified for the key words/phrases
        • Sculptural object/model shows the organizational pattern (linear, radial, centralized, grid, clustered) that best suits the metaphor
        • Sculptural object/model uses or represents the building materials that support your concept metaphor/architectural strategies/components/design principles/design features
        • Impeccable craftsmanship
With all this in mind, my new poster looks like 
I made changes to my model and my words to better fit my concept and my parti diagram. So, we'll see how today's presentations go.
