team scope + presentation

the EXPANDED DESIGN
Working as a team, you have expanded the program of Pratt's green roof, folding in additional activities, ideas, structures, and scales into the existing framework you explored as individuals in phase 1. This does not mean your design should have everything but the kitchen sink - no dog's breakfasts please! Instead you and your team have carefully crafted a design concept that guided your decisions regarding each facet and component of the roof. We proposed two strands of exploration for each team to choose from: urban agriculture and biodiversity. While these are large categories that have potential overlap, we asked that each team choose ONE as their primary organizing principle.

each team will present

+ their chosen strand
+ a clearly articulated design concept
+ an exploration of how the team's strand impacts and works with the 3 primary goals that we began with as a class [see below]
+ at least 2 additional goals
+ [1] systems diagram [with appropriate metrics] per team member
+ a well thought out plan and section
+ drawings that give a sense of the experience of the place
+ clearly defined strategies for water collection, roof system, plant selection, monitoring, education, job creation

Additionally, the project remains a DEP funded project: your team should build on the work you have done thus far. [this may or may not mean that you will retain your physical design of the roof - it should at the very least provide a starting point]
