Architecture Thesis 3D Modeling and Visualization

I am looking for an experienced architectural freelancer or 3D modeler to assist with the digital production of my architecture thesis. Scope of Work: • Complete 3D architectural building model (preferably SketchUp). • 3D site context model, including surrounding buildings and vicinity details of Ongpin Street, Binondo, Manila. • Architectural floor plans for all building levels. • Site Development Plan (SDP). • Building elevations and sections. • Exterior and interior 3D visualization/rendering. • Site development and architectural coordination. Project Requirements: • Proficient in SketchUp and AutoCAD. • Experience with complex architectural projects and large-scale buildings. • Ability to develop architectural drawings and 3D models from initial concepts, sketches, and design references. • Experience with conceptual, experimental, and contemporary architectural designs. • Ability to coordinate floor plans, elevations, sections, and 3D models. • Willing to provide progress updates and revisions. Design References: • Bartlett School of Architecture-style conceptual and experimental architectural presentations. • Open to creative and unconventional architectural forms. Available Materials: • Thesis concept and design direction. • Site information and references. • Initial design ideas and visual references. Architectural 3D Modeling Commission – Summary Project: Ongpin Street, Binondo, Manila Concept: The Market as an Oracle: Time, Perception, and Parasitic Architecture 1. Project Overview Revitalize Ongpin Street while preserving its historical, cultural, and commercial identity. Introduce parasitic architecture that attaches to, extends from, or occupies existing buildings and underutilized spaces. Improve pedestrian circulation, accessibility, environmental comfort, and public interaction. Retain the existing urban fabric rather than replacing it with entirely new structures. 2. Central Design Concept: Movement and Stillness Explore the contrast between Binondo's continuous movement and opportunities for people to pause. Use photography, particularly Henri Cartier-Bresson's Decisive Moment, as a design reference. Translate photography into architecture through: Framing views and encounters. Creating moments of pause. Highlighting overlooked architectural details. Responding to pedestrian movement. Preserving cultural identity while accommodating change. Architecture should make everyday market experiences more meaningful and accessible. 3. Deaf-Friendly Architecture Integrate DeafSpace principles into the design. Visual connectivity: Clear sightlines and visually permeable boundaries. Communication spaces: Widened areas for signing, face-to-face interaction, and gathering. Lighting: Consistent illumination for facial expressions and sign-language visibility. Wayfinding: Clear signage, colors, symbols, and recognizable landmarks. Inclusive circulation: Accessible pathways, ramps, crossings, and entrances. Ensure Deaf users remain connected to the market instead of being isolated from its activities. 4. Parasitic Architecture Use existing buildings as hosts for new architectural interventions. Possible interventions: Facade attachments: Canopies, shading devices, extensions, and modular signage. Vertical interventions: Elevated walkways, bridges, rooftop spaces, and upper-level connections. Micro-spaces: Small seating areas, waiting zones, communication spaces, and commercial extensions. Environmental interventions: Green facades, planting systems, natural ventilation, and rain protection. Design considerations: Minimize demolition. Preserve existing architectural character. Use modular and adaptable components. Clearly distinguish existing structures from proposed additions. Consider structural attachment, fire safety, drainage, maintenance, and regulations. 5. Time-Based Architecture and Market Rhythms Treat Ongpin as a constantly changing environment rather than a static streetscape. Study how activities change throughout the day. Possible design responses: Foldable and retractable structures. Modular and movable seating. Temporary market extensions. Organized delivery and pedestrian zones. Flexible dining and waiting spaces. Time-responsive lighting and signage. Important: Show how the actual use and configuration of spaces change throughout the day, not just changes in lighting or sky conditions. 6. Conceptual Systems Three conceptual systems will guide the architectural design: A. Tarot – Spatial Generator Use tarot to interpret site conditions and generate design opportunities through four categories: FLOW: Movement, circulation, bottlenecks, and transitions. TRADE: Shops, transactions, deliveries, and commercial activities. MEMORY: Heritage, culture, and historical landmarks. PERCEPTION: DeafSpace, visual communication, sensory awareness, and moments of pause. B. Co-Star Astrology – Time and Relationships Explore cycles and changing conditions. Map overlapping activities and spatial relationships. Develop time-based activity diagrams. Inspire adaptable and layered architectural interventions. C. Feng Shui – Spatial Planning Study orientation, circulation, and spatial balance. Organize entrances, pathways, and thresholds. Balance active and quiet spaces. Explore the relationship between open and enclosed spaces. These systems should inform actual architectural decisions rather than serve as decorative themes. 7. Environmental and Public Realm Improvements Improve shade and rain protection. Introduce planting where feasible. Improve pedestrian circulation. Organize queues, deliveries, dining, and waiting areas. Provide resting and social interaction spaces. Improve nighttime visibility. Address waste management and drainage. Encourage cultural exploration and longer visits to local businesses. 8.
