The Studio

So originally I was hoping to have a post with pictures and a video of our apartment. But that is taking me a little longer then expected so I am putting this post of first. It will give you pictures of what our studio space is like as well as a virtual tour of the studio!!!!! Its a pretty sweet place. We are borrowing the space from MBM Architects. It looks like a space where lots of drafting and model building was done as you will be able to see in the video and pictures that show some of there best done work on display. However aside from that it is basically this large green cinder-blocked dual level space. It has screened windows on all sides for safety and privacy, with a sweet spiral staircase that takes you upstairs to the second level where we have even more workspace. We also have a bathroom as well as storage space upstairs all on a floor with a beautiful railing that is not only a foot and a half too short, but it almost wraps all the way around our second floor. There is also this sweet mechancal lift however we're not "allowed" to use it. But I'm definately working on getting our TA to change her mind. You can also see the awesome scanning and printing center we have set-up. Its actually an identical Spanish version of the lab in the Crough center. There is no paper, everything works seperately, and it is way too small!!! Ohhhh Zinnngggeeeerrrrrrrr!!!!!!! But other then that I would not want to have any other kind of space. It is so makeshift and cool. This is one of the first spaces that I arrived at where I truly felt a sense of being a college student away in another country working in a small makeshift studio space and relying on what I can do with the tools I'm given! So all in all its a really cool place whose character is only matched by those on this trip. Enjoy the video and I apology for the resolution, hopefully its good enough, if there is problem try watching it at a smaller window. Hope you like what we got!!!!
