Sketch-Up : The Coolest Thing Ever

Today I learned a new program called "SketchUp." It's SO cool. It's an awesome way to represent buildings. I didn't learn how to use it, I simply was informed that I should use it, so I spent all night (until right now: 1:54am) teaching myself how to use it.

To practice, I began working on models/sketches of my movie theater, due next week for my final project.

I'll just attach the photos of the design I came up with. It's a pretty massive theater, but that was what I was going for, so I hope you like it!!


The overhang seen in the far left of this picture is a bus-stop waiting area. There is a bus stop and a T (subway) stop at the site, so I had to create space for those passengers to remain while waiting still.


This glass section seen below is an elevator shaft, for 3 elevators with a glass wall to exist.


A good shot of the elevator shaft and overhang/bus-stop again!

Here's a roof shot (you can see the sky-lights in the upstairs lobby, allowing maximum light in.)

The big block-like figure with no windows or doors seen on the upper right of this building is the movie theater.
