HAND MADE SKETCHES
PROJECTS WILL USUALLY START WITH A SKETCH, EITHER ON A NAPKIN, A SHEET OF PAPER OR ON A TABLET.
A SERIES OF SKETCHES WILL BE DEVELOPED AT THE EARLY STAGES OF THE PROJECT TO EXPLORE ALTERNATIVES AND AGREE UPON THE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK.
A SENSE OF THE RIGHT PROPORTIONS, GRAPHICS AND CURVATURE OF LINES WILL BE DECIDED UPON
BEFORE FURTHER DETAILS WILL BE DEVELOPED IN CAD PROGRAMS.
SPACE PLANNING AND GENERAL ARRANGEMENT
THE NEXT STEP IN THE DEVLOPMENT PROCESS IS TO CREATE A FUNCTIONAL PLAN.
IT IS EXECUTED IN A SERIES OF STAGES FROM INITIAL LOCATION OF MAIN FUNCTIONS AND AREAS, TO A DOCUMENT CONTAINING A COMPLETE OVERVIEW OF THE ENTIRE SPACE/VESSELS MOVEMENT FLOW, AREAS, DETAILS AND TECHNICAL EQUIPMENT.
THIS PROCESS ALSO STARTS ON A SKETCH LEVEL AND IS FURTHER DEVELOPED INTO CAD PROGRAMS.
DETAILED 3D MODELLING
3D MODELS ARE IMPORTANT TO EVALUATE THE DESIGN AND GET AN OVERVIEW OF DIMENSIONS, PROPORTIONS, MATERIALS AND OVERALL AESTHETICS AND FUNCTIONALITY.
MODELS WILL BE DEVELOPED IN RHINOCEROS FORMAT AND RENDERED IN SKETCHUP OR SIMILAR. THE SPEED, VERSATILITY AND GRAPHICAL SUPERIORITY OF THIS PROCESS HAS PROVEN TO BE VERY EFFECTIVE.
THE MODELS ARE USED TO CREATE COLORED PLANS, ELEVATIONS, SECTIONS, 3D RENDERINGS, ANIMATIONS AND UNDERLAYS FOR CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS.
CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS
THE NECESSARY CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS WILL BE DRAFTED FOR THE YARD/CONTRACTOR
THE DOCUMENTS WILL CONTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT GENERAL DIMENSIONS, MATERIALS, LOOSE FURNITURE AND LIGHTING.
THE DOCUMENTS WILL BE ACCURATE BLUEPRINTS FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT OF WORKING DRAWINGS.
