ARC II project overview
The ARC II project represents a single family home on a wedge-shaped lot. The house curves around an intimate private backyard space including a water feature or swimming pool which have yet to be modeled. The house includes: two bedrooms with private bathrooms, living room, kitchen, two-car garage, concrete floors, and a standing seam metal roof. The living room includes a custom large bookcase/office workspace combination and a rotating fireplace. The kitchen includes a wall of cabinets with double ovens, refrigerator, and a microwave oven. The kitchen island includes: a sink, dishwasher, trash compactor, and a built-in dinning table assembly. The glazing units currently depicted are only placeholders. The two large fixed glazing units facing the backyard space will be center-pivoting glass doors after a representative Revit ® door family is generated. This project is still a work in progress so changes will be made to the Revit ® model and new renderings generated.
The ARC II project was my first attempt to create an insulated rammed earth material for walls within the Revit ® Architecture 2011 application. Contact me if you want details on the creation of the rammed earth wall material in Revit ®. The rammed earth walls are based upon a 0' - 7" by 0' - 4" by 0' - 7" module where there are two 7-inch thick sections of rammed earth on the exterior and interior surfaces of the wall along with a 4-inch section of rigid foam insulation in the middle.
