Façade in stages.

Designing a Facade occurs in stages. We plan both, what we want it to look like and what is behind, in no strict order. 
Sometimes one leads the other.
We typically show the client a rendering or sketch, then we draft as we develop the project. Then it gets built, 
and some decisions are not made until the last minute, 
perhaps the color, the landscape and so on.
Here is a New home in 4 levels, a lower ground level 
and a top terrace, which you don't get to see in reality.

We hope you enjoy!  

 

 
The Rendering.
In this case done the old fashioned way by hand.
After the preliminary design a rendering to show the client.

 
 
Front Elevation.
The technical term for the drafted Façade. Though this is also done before the rendering, this was the final drawing. Yet you will see changes made to the built façade.

In progress.
As you can see the entrance changed,
with the glass not extending to the 4th level.
Completed Façade.
Notice the color, the four pilasters and palm trees complete the look.
Slightly angled view and with jet skies.
You get to see a bit more of the 4th. floor. Perhaps we should have double the garage area, however it is not always possible.
Detail above the entrance.
It is still missing a glass canopy.
Detail from the 4th level.
Actually not part of the front façade, but it shows the adjacent home
which we designed as well, and façade details in both.
 
It does take time to design and the process is a discovery in itself.

You imagine, you draw, and make adjustments, improvements and changes. When you are on the site, the actual building looks different, so you adjust.
