Week 4 Folie Final Submission

My job for the project was predominately to design and produce the posters. Also my job was to do the photomontages of our folie into the site. We all felt it was important to include these photomontages so that observers could understand how the folie sits in the site. Additionally I put together the elevations, rendered them and the diagrams. All of the following images had to be edited in photoshop before being put in the poster and people were put in.

I fixed up the site plan so it was more obvious where the folie was positioned. As a group we decided on the colour scheme of the poster using muted browns and greens to fit in with the site with a grey wash over top. This was so the poster was coherent as one thing and had a theme. Craig supplied the two main sections through the folie as well as the site plan. Jasmine provided the floor plan, elevations and two isometric drawings. Bec provided the detailed sections and both Bec and Jasmine worked on the diagrams for the poster. We were all together at most times during the project which allowed us to problem solve together and figure out what we wanted to show on the poster. Originally I had produced a section of the folie in the site but we all felt that it was not necessarily important to show on the poster as it did not show our folie in the manner we liked. 
Originally I wanted to make the poster have a band of continuous photomontages so as to tie the whole three posters together, this did no work though as there was not enough space to fit all the sections on. So working together we came up with a new idea to split the photos and then I produced this layout below for the poster.  Finally I put all the text on the posters and named the detailed sections. Overall I was very happy with the poster and thought it looked succinct and displayed our folie well.
