this week has been very inspiring because of the graduation on wednesday.. makes you want to work harder.. even though this weekend is a long weeeknd doesnt mean we get to have a break entirely.. right now the main focus is to finish of computers rendering with 3d max .. and construction and detailing. the facade renovations or referbishment.

basically its find a a building between govan mbeki and russel road main street port elizabeth and give it a face lift using latest construction details or product from europe. i found a couple of buildings, two of which are museams one in germany and the other in chicargo ( clay and metal). the desicion hasnt been made yet but it has to be done because of the deadline. good luck on the rest of the class.. ideas are welcome
