I am Antoinette D. Belson, a M. Arch graduate from the Knowlton School of Architecture at The Ohio State University. I am also an AIA Associate. My experience working with computer software includes the Adobe Creative Suite package of software, notably: Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator as well as a range of architecture software packages including, but not limited to: AutoCAD, Autodesk 3-D Max, V-Ray Rendering, Rhinoceros, and Revit. I have extensive academic experience in physical model construction, extending to working with laser cutters. I also have experience with furniture making.
My interest in design includes housing for diverse environments and impacting as many people as possible with better design. I am interested in exploring historic renovation and adaption of what is currently there for a new purpose. I aim to learn about a person's spatial understanding through exploration through scale, compression, and circulation. Having studied in Denmark, I am been influenced by Scandinavian design. I am interested in designs based on the interrelationship of economics, politics, environment and function.

Earth Science Gallery
Convey the tectonic and spatial possibilities of the construction systems which make up your design. Detail models are not used as part of the construction document process, but they are used to explore how building systems might have an architectural presence. Build your detail model at 1/2” = 1’-0”. The smaller scale (relative to the wall section) should allow you to concentrate more on the overall form of the design and its general material qualities, rather than specific. The model should be a cut of a portion of your overall building design; it must include at least one exterior wall. It should include construction from foundation to parapet level. You should design it in such a way as to best show both the formal and constructional aspects of your design.
