24 HR DESIGN CHALLENGE

Two Story Modern House

Program:

The sole purpose of this project was to challenge myself by designing a 2 story modern residential building within a 24 hr span.

About this Plan:

  • Long and narrow, the home has living space on the ground floor that could be turned into a fourth bedroom and a bathroom if desired.

  • The main living space on the second floor is all open concept with views that stretch from the kitchen through the dining area and into the large living room.

  • All the bedrooms are on the left side of the home with the master suite having a door to the large second floor patio.

  • Another porch in back lies off the kitchen with stairs down to the ground level.

  • Big windows and lots of glass brighten the whole house.

Deliverables:

  • Cover Sheet

  • Floor Plans

  • Roof Plan

  • Building Elevations

  • Two Building Sections (Longitudinal & Cross-Section).

  • Details

  • Presentation Drawings (3D Floor Plans)

Ending Quote

In order to design a building the first thing architects need to understand is the program, which is an architectural way of saying, “what is your wish list?” or, “how will this building be used?”
