Work In Progress
Step 1
Grid line were carefully measured on the overall dimensions in order to be clear about the placement of columns and walls.

Step 2
Firstly, I started off with placing a wide floor slab to elevate structure from it from ground.
Secondly, another two floor on the entrance was added for the soft-scape that was yet to be done soon
Thirdly, I also added floor for outdoor spaces and stepping planks.
Step 3
I used massing to make the curve for the centre gathering space, because it's easier to curve with different heights.

Step 4
Walls are implemented into completed massing. After that, walls are placed onto grid lines to form facade walls of different spaces.

Step 5
To do slanted roof, I click on roof footprint option and adjust to the size that I needed. Then, proceed to turn off all the define slop except for the angle that needed to be tilt at 5 degrees. For the washroom, slanted roof wasn't necessary so I decided to go with flat roof by untick all boxes of define slop.

Sun Placement :
To create the sun by using the Sun Positioner tool. Then, select 'camera' from 'create' option and click physical camera. After placing the sun, I adjust the compass radius to 100mm and set the Sun Position to manual.
6
Values:
Later, I select 'Rendering' and click 'Environment' with the 'Physical Sun & Sky Environment' in the 'Environment Map' section. After that, click the Render Setup tool and assign ART Renderer as the renderer. In order to get good picture, I begin to adjust the corresponding Aperture, Shutter speed and ISO Exposure Gain.
