Stage 04.03

Complete four (4) elevations of your project. Imagine as though this elevation is taken 5' from the face of the building, and make a cut through your model at that point. Where paths or site geometry extend through this cut plane, treat them as a section cut.

Once you have cut the elevations from the model, make refinements as necessary in a 2d file, and export them to either Illustrator or InDesign. Olines of forms which are closer to the cut plane should be displayed using a medium line weight. Lines which represent cuts in a surface, or distant geometry should be represented with a lite line. Cuts through opaque solid areas/forms which are part of your adjusted zones should have a bold outline and be displayed using black fill set to 25% opacity. Cuts through opaque solid areas/forms which are part of unadjusted zones should be displayed using black fill set to 50% opacity. Open Space should be left white. Fill layers should be set below any line work which occurs.

Place the elevation number as described in previous assignments. These should be numbered in a clockwise fashion.
Submit the files to your archlab folder as horizontally oriented jpegs measuring 3200x2000 pixels, by 8:30 AM next class, and name them as follows:
