10/20/09 Grouping strategy



After creating a few blocks for each program, we placed them thinking specifically of grouping grades. It eventually created a cluster of boxes, which I think we wouldn't get much ideas of massing out of it.



So we switched back to rhino model again, which looks like we are kind of back to our preliminary concept. From those diagrammatic configuration, however, we are going to "condense" classrooms so they are not spreaded all over the site. Condensation includes: pairing, stacking and narrowing the gaps between them. This will enable us to have more voids in general.

After constructing iterations and picking our favorite tomorrow, we will be back to Digital Project model, developing accurate model further.
