Description
This course sketched a building based on the zoning analysis in the previous zoning course. The first Urban Tools course goes over how to interpret the New York City Zoning Resolution and what you need to know to decide the uses of the building. This sketches that interpretation and uses the Revit Architecture to design floor plans for each of the floors.
This course does not go into full detail on how to use Revit Architecture. You will learn how Revit 2024 is used to sketch the rooms, decide on the number of rooms to put on each floor, download components for free websites, and learn why it is important to pre-plan the space uses.
In the previous course, I decided to construct a seven-floor building on a currently unused space in the South Bronx. The decision to construct a seven-floor building was based on the surrounding buildings, and what the community may need based on seven years of seeing presentations at the Community Board. The space is in a transit zone, next to a park, and near a school. All of these surroundings helped with identifying the building's uses. The sketch goes over what to look for when designing each floor of the building.
Who this course is for:
This course is for students that want to learn about NYC Zoning and using Revit Architecture to Design a building.
This course is for people that want to know the tools used by Urban Planners to design neighborhoods.
