About Me

Hi! I’m Daniel McWhirter. I am a 5th year undergraduate student at the University of Oregon currently studying architecture with a minor in interior Architecture. I grew up in Portland Oregon and moved to Eugene to pursue my architectural education in 2018. I am interested in residential design as well as interior design with focus in color and color theory. Professionally I hope to gain lots of experience working for others so I can gradually build up a portfolio and look towards starting my own firm. The hope in mind is that I will be able to take on projects that are fun and exciting and be able to put my own twist into architecture. I believe architecture is a matter of making

spaces and solving issues through design not only from the clients perspective but an architectural and community perspective. Through my schooling I have learned how to try new things and expand my knowledge of the architectural world in computer programs as well as hand drawing techniques. My favorite programs are Illustrator and Rhin but through this class I have grown to really enjoy and appreciate Revit.

TOPOSURFACES

This week we were looking at how we can create site models and cut through them using building pads. These images are showing the example project that we did on the left and how I added sidewalks and curb cuts into my own project to provide depth on the right.

This week we learned about creating massing models and using them as schematic design tools to begin design early on. The two images here are a overall design mass concept on the left and then a facad paneling element that I modeled to be a part of the overall model as show on the right

The main two elevations on the south and west sides. These are showing the facad system as well as the hole punch system of the terraces.

WALLS AND STACKED WALLS

This is where we learned how to customize our walls. The image on the left is showing the typical wall assembly within my project. CMU Exterior with an air gap, Plywood sheathing, Insulation and a gypsum board finish on the interior.

This image is showing the walls that share the assembly type illustrated in the image on the left

STAIRS RAMPS RAILINGS

This is where we learned how to add stairs to our designs and customize them how we like. The image on the left is showing a section cut through the main stair in the center of the building to show the connection between levels. The image on the right is showing an eye sight view of what the stair looks like.

This we learned how to set up views in Revit and create very compelling axons. These axons are showing the relationships of the floor levels and showing how circulation goes up through the building.

PORTFOLIO

This is a continuation of us learning how to set up 3D views in revit. The image on the left is a view from the outside looking into the main brewing space on the ground floor which would normally be populated with lots of brewing equipment. The right side image shows a standard view as your coming down the main sidewalk street towards the building.

IMAGE: EXTERIOR SIDEWALK VIEW

Looking down the sidewalk with the main brewing space and secondary entrance to the right

This is where we learned how to render using enscape and make our models become more alive. The left view is an aerial shot of the main busy corner of the building showing how it interacts with the corner. The right view is a rendered view of the sidewalk view.

DESIGN OPTIONS

This is where we learned how to make multiple design iterations within our model. Being able to switch certain aspects of the design was super helpful in brainstorming ideas. The picture on the left is showing a design option of circular coumns while the image on the left is showing square columns.
