Scannnnnin'
Currently scanning all drawings, sketches, diagrams, measured drawings, orthos, print-outs, whatevers pertaining to this project for the review.
I’ve driven to the shop at least twice thus far today - once to take pictures, once to get above-stated papers that I conveniently put in the file cabinent drawer in our desk! Woop woop re-design + review time.
Saturday night observation - current top creates a shadow
Probably just the fact that this acrylic is smoked, and that this picture is hard to understand, and that the light in a real bank would be different AND we never put up that one wall support but…
The way that the current top is on our desk, combined with the current walls and lighting creates a really strange shadow that definitely detracts from the aesthetic qualities of the curve in place. Hmmm.

Go Team Bar!
While Megan and Sarah went on a beverage run, the floating/hanging alcohol well for The Bar fell from it’s ceiling supports - no good :-/
Emma is trying to skateboard.
Saturday night at the shop - two groups done two left to go!
You can see Megan & David at The Bar on the left, and then blurry in the distance on the middle right is Team Split Ends working on their hair-cutter’s tray.
Emma felt lonely and missed her studiomates, so she brought them dinner and cherry coke. Everyone’s stuff seems to be coming along really well, and the two remaining groups have clearly learned a lot. Their positive attitudes are stellar examples, not to mention how awesome David has been throughout this entire, long process.
Saturday morning meeting to talk about what we need to change - mainly the desk compartments and the desk dimensions, keeping in my mind the circle an arm makes when sitting in the middle of a desk.
Wall details are also important, but not as important as the desk where all the real activity is at.
This is the Metropolitan - ‘an intown business and arts district’
