30 Jul Hide and Seek: “Can you see me now??” says the RIDGE-house

Lets play Hide and Seek…

One of the primary design concerns for the development of the RIDGE-house was its visibility from a defined Scenic Corridor in the city.  The 2-dimensional drawings were used to create a 3-dimensional model using Revit (our firm still primarily uses AutoCAD to produce all design drawings… perhaps a discussion for another post…).  Aerial photographs of the site as well as numerous site visits helped to define the 2 viewpoints along the Scenic Corridor that allow a glimpse of our site.

Can you see the RIDGE-house?
