COPACOBANA 5_TUTORIAL REVIEW 2_LIZ WHITE

Hey Tim, David and Josh
I think you guys are really getting somewhere...come a long way from last week.
well here is my notes from the last tutorial...
Concept of ventilation: 1. high vents to let wind w/o sand into building to cool 2. central garden to let out hot air (no use of HVAC good) 3. all the shutters to be closed at night as the nights will be cold
Plan: love the symbol of an eagle, well thought out space and use of solar panels...use of thick materials wise.
I would say keep going...but as i mentioned it is too house like...minimise it...you really need to look at the cold night issue some more... and as mentioned make the guttering and piping aesthetically pleasing if it going to be visible on the inside.
Good job guys
Liz
