250 Summary for My Game Plan

My plan would be examining the plans, sections, drawings and models of the Silkeborg Museum. I'm not basically going to take all of the drawings,plans etc. and model the whole museum but I'll be examine the vision for Jorn Utzon's design by trying the research in libraries for useful books on Jorn Utzon and possibly books on the Silkeborg Museum. What I'll also be doing, is examining the Ajanta and Ellora cave designs and some design elements from the Guggenheim Bilbao so that I can take on board the redesign of the Silkeborg Museum. Overall my game plan would be similar to what I'll be doing in the second assignment in History and Theory with Associate Professor Harry Margalit, where we examine the whole building using Sketchup. However, I'll be doing this in a different way by creating renders, perspectives, axonometrics, plans, sections and elevations. What I'll also be doing which I hope to do is create an animated walkthrough of the Silkeborg Museum to give an impression on how people feel when they explore the building. I hope to find some people to work with for research matters, however I seem to have some difficulties with finding people to work in a group for research. So I may spend some of my time doing independent research. I'll also 
research some of the information from Assignment Two of this course on the design of the curved shells, never-realized corridors and other geometrical design elements from the Sydney Opera House. This would require me to put a lot of work in this assignment to make the building more realistic.
