First major project

The lyton street project is a remodeled home project designed to comfortably support the clients family of four through sustainable and functional methods. The home remains eco-friendly and thoughtfully assembled per clients requests.

The assignments main objective was to redesign the sites existing structures and transform it into a suitable living space. The clients requests were important factors when designing the home. It must fit the theme of surrounding buildings, remain sustainable, comfortably support a family & their interests with privacy and follow guidelines/regulations. The remodeled home has:

  • 3 bedrooms + walk-in wardrobe for master

  • extra powder room & ensuite

  • study room

  • space for gardening

  • skylights, solar panels & rainwater collection

  • patio

The homes layout is spacious enough for common family activity and thoughtfully designed to accommodate these areas with sustainable solutions. Upon entering, the hallway helps separate high-flow spaces such as the living & kitchen from reaching the more quite bedrooms & bathrooms. This makes noise and lighting better suited to their intended rooms. Similarly, a raised roof and skylight positioned above the living space helps to brighten the area & benefit from the suns path. The living space also connects the patio & garden together amongst the backyard to ensure privacy from surrounding residents.

This first major project has demonstrated the basic processes of designing a building that is sustainable yet purposeful to the client. However, most importantly built a foundation understanding REVIT’s new software.

These pages are my first hand drawn sketches of the houses construction details. They represent the roof & walls with windows.

concept design.

My first attempt in designing the lyton home through hand sketches and clients requests. They consisted of various view angles & floor plan. Personally, I prefer this design over the final one and would have been convincing if drawn in REVIT however it did not meet government regulations and ultimately scraped with the new design to better suit.
