Programmatic Method: Bodega 2.0 / ARCH 3010 Fall 2024

Year: 2024

Category: Refurbishment

Skills: Photoshop, Illustrator, SketchUp, V-Ray, AutoCAD

Fall 2024 This project builds upon the previous Historical Method project. Using the same site from that project, we were tasked with creating a new and modern bodega. We were provided with square footage requirements which helped shape the building design. I knew right off the bat that I wanted to create an employee-centric building. I wanted the employees to have my attention. My building design started with quick bubble diagrams, which then led to programming diagrams. The floor plan was where I was able to show my intentions the best. I created the floor plan to allow each employee to have the smoothest path to get their work done. The manager of the Bodega is also included in this design. I made massing models that built upon the arrangements I made with my diagrams and floor plan. I then started my elevation, plan, section, and detail drawings. I then created renderings of the building's interior and exterior. This helped give life to the entire project. This project was presented in front of the ARCH 3010 Cohort, architects, and professors at the University of Utah School of Architecture. The project was given an A.

Process: Massing Model 1

My massing models show some quick ideas for locating the required spaces and rooms. This one has the entry as the focal point.

Process: Massing Model 3

This massing also has the entry as the focal point. I started to play with different heights in this one.
