Wisma Tani 4G2 hand drawn elevations during design stage

During the design stage of this project I discovered it to be necessary at that point in time to prepare some hand drawn elevation drawings overlaid upon computer drawn lines of floor height and structural grid. This is an important process for establishing visual dimensions of cladding lines required by the architect as easy reference for CAD draughtsmen to follow.

This process eliminates abortive comments and multiple corrections of CAD working drawing. By the time the draughtsman had keyed in the information it was already 90% correct.

Corner treatment, visual accents and other architectural requirements are added in at this stage. It is part of the design decision making process.

Early facade concept sketch based on the Fibonacci series

Design development sketch to calculate number of precast fin walls against diamond shaped Fibonacci facade.

Sketch drawing to study the relationship between facade and section/inclination of facade. Note that this early scheme had skygardens which had later been deleted in the final scheme.

Sketches and Ideas for MITI Competition

The idea for this proposed 20 storey tower is to develop a vertical combination of forms that reflect the tower's function by expressing each different areas of the office floor plate. The typical office floors, the attached core, roof terrace spaces and a circular conference centre on top of the tower, each having unique and visually identifiable features that gel together as an architecural composition.
