The first phase of this project focused almost exclusively on the site plan as it relates to automobiles. As the project has progressed, it has grown to include the building, interior,energy resources, and waste management as well as project associated emerging technology.

The most recent phase within the design development has been to focus on a specific base model. Once a mass model was arrived at, we started to develop the interior plan and construction details in an effort to finish a full DD set..

POMPANO BEACH LIBRARY AND CULTURAL CENTER
Rhino model
STL models to
As an intern at MPdL Studio, I worked on the Pompano Beach Library and Cultural Center. I was tasked with processing the existing Rhino model and producing a 3D print of the project for a presentation to the city of Pompano Beach. Over the following summer, I was able to work on the site plan for the project. After I was hired on full time at the firm, I worked on the final phases of the project which included the interior design as well as some final details of the site plan.
