Shading study

noon December 21 - Natural daylight makes it to the studio space at the second level... but not so, at the first level.... the only part that is in shadow is the circulation are

noon June 21 - Natural daylight comes full bore into the first level studio (Iwill need some sort of shading device there... and I am really excited that the second level studio space will be shaded well with the light shelves bringing in the light throughout the studio space.

noon March 21 - Natural daylight seem to make it into the studios in the upper level window area and diffused with the light shelf, while the bulk of the studio will be shaded by the sun shades .

Final Studio: Code Analysis - Prelim

Did I get everything? I think I need to go back and do an area modification calc for having multipul buildings on one site per 704.3 and maybe a diagram of where the uses are in the building....

Moving things forward....

I have done some research here about the materiality of the building.... with the structural system in place (and it mostly being a modular system) it makes sense to me that the a zinc panel rain screen system is a great choice. It also helps reinforce the lineal approach that i have taken. In this image the rectangles outlined in red are where the glazing is, in some areas, for example the glazing in the mechanical room will be blacked out while i still am able to maintain the horizontal feel of the building.
