Car Collector House - Extension & Renovation

Role: Project Captain, Project Software: AutoCAD

Assignment for this project was very straightforward: Show off client's car collection. It can be difficult to make the case for a specific typology when dealing with such assignment. The focus was put on two criteria: create a form that would be both distinctive/in relation to existing building, as well as architecturally expressing that form in a manner that recalls the experience of looking at a vintage collector’s car and a new automobile.

The project has been passed from one GC team to another repeatedly over 4 years, as well as had more than 20 people working on the design through all the phases through those 4 years. My involvement on the project happened in 2019.

My part on this project was taking over the construction administration during the ongoing construction. As you can imagine it came with its challenges like catching up with the project and the team, executing design changes and going through change order approval process etc.
