Final Bench

It's finally finished and here are the images... as you can see Meg McMillan and I decided to simplify the design and use color to create interest.

Belk Building- Design Development 1

The concept of our design is Grafting. This is when one part of a plant is fused with another.
we used this concept to combine Albemarle with the surrounding local businesses to make it a better place. Above is the main floor plan, and below is the mezzanine and third floor levels. We would like to have a restaurant, event space, guest rooms, and townhomes in our space.

above is the section for the building. The guest rooms would be above the restaurant, and the town homes would be placed above the kitchen and event area.
This is an idea for booth seating that combines function with our concept. Three table would be combined into this form with a raised booth seating in the center. the booth is "grafted" into the other tables
