Buena Vista School Proposal
TreanorHL needed a model for a proposal interview about a new school, one that showed the design on the existing property and let the team rearrange the buildings during the presentation.
Built to be moved during the interview
We made a flat base with parking, landscaping, playing fields, cars and buses, and showed the existing buildings as footprints. The proposed buildings, including their landscaped interior courtyards, are simple solid-colored blocks that peg in and out of the base, so presenters can try different arrangements in front of the panel. Keeping the forms simple kept the conversation on placement and layout, the decisions the interview was about.
Our guide to massing and architectural study models explains how to choose the detail around an early design decision.
