Plan Renovation

[Jamie Swearengin]

Forthe building permit on a renovation job I need to have the old and new features together in one plan. Here in Switzerland this is usually done with color codes:

In this plan the yellow dotted lines represent the old walls and staircase that got torn down and the red solid lines represent the new walls and staircase.

I would make two-three different plan view scenes:

One that shows existing features, one for things to be demolished and one for new structure.

Then, in LayOut, I would put the scenes on top of each other and apply suitable style overrides (linetype, colour, width) to each.

I think @Anssi has described it pretty well. If you ensure that the camera is in the same location for both scenes in SketchUp you can place the first one in LO and get it set up. Then copy it and paste it to the next layer up in the list and change the scene. Put each viewport on its own layer so you can access the viewport on the bottom easily if needed.

Not sure I agree that one needs to do that. A separate stacked viewport in layout should do the trick. That top viewport could have the overrides that Anssi mentions, and also be wireframe, so that is shows only linework from the original plan on top of the proposed plan. Obviously the original walls needs to be on a separate tag.

Not long ago, I shared in Instagram stories some thoughts on how Chris and I plan for a project before we get started. The post garnered so many great comments and questions that I decided to expand on it for the blog.

If you're at all like me, you have a long list of dream projects to tackle, so step one is to identify one! You'll want to lay out the specific functional issues you'll address through the project as well as the aesthetic goals and challenges. Also, ask yourself: Is this a temporary fix, phase one of many, or the ultimate long-term solution?

Now the fun begins. Step three is to find inspiration! Tear out magazine photos (pro tip: scan them with the CamScanner app so you'll have digital copies of everything), save Instagram posts and pin away on Pinterest. (Here's how I use Pinterest and Instagram to find design inspo.) Look for themes and through lines and reflect on how these concepts fit with your dream home as a whole.

Step four is to set your budget. I'm, of course, talking about a detailed financial budget to provide the ultimate decision-making guidance. But just as important, and too often overlooked, is coming up with a time budget. Both need to be realistic and have some wiggle room for unanticipated curveballs, but completing them should inspire you to feel like you've got this. (Here's how we plan financially for every project.)

Next up is the phase I could actually stop time and sink into forever. Step six: Make a mood board! This step comes in when you're well equipped to picture what specific item will truly fit where. With your budget laid out and your layout in mind, mock up that mood board and edit away. It's really helpful to see everything together, and this is usually the stage where I see what's missing. Sometimes it's that special piece that just ties it all together. (I use Canva to make mood boards.)

Step seven? Meet with your contractors to talk through and tweak your plans to make sure everyone is on the same page. Then, you're ready for step eight: Order your stuff. Sometimes, this is the stage when the project timeline gets expanded because of lead time on furniture or appliances. Keep everyone in the loop, and follow up with your retailers. I keep my order numbers handy and try to get someone on the phone if the delivery date gets pushed out.

After weeks of compiling images in a Pinterest Board (feel free to follow along) we felt like we could really share our ideas! Above are some of the images that inspired our color pallet, design, and texture. I together the images we loved and once I saw them in one place I realized, WOW we really do have a vision.

Once we decided that we were in fact going to remodel the kitchen I dusted off my old Interior Design skills and drew up a few simple CAD drawings of our existing kitchen. Ryan needs spreadsheets and I need pictures.

Thanks for sharing these photos. In fact, I just held my breath when I saw how you started the renovation. It seems to me that you will be able to fulfill all your ideas. You have a great plan, I think. Especially considering that you are doing it with a great mood. I often use the services of other people, because there is no experience in such things.

Demolition permit applications are before the city of Detroit and, once approved, work will begin. Demolition is expected to take several months. When completed, the site will remain greenspace as the University decides the best way to make use of it.

The new Student Union offers a one-stop-shop for students and their families as they consider a Detroit Mercy education. Renovation plans place the facility, built in 1955 and expanded in 1970, at the center of student life on campus. Unused and obsolete square footage will become the new home for all student-centered services, from admissions to financial aid to student life offices.

The state of the art 5,000 square foot STAR Center provides students with real-time healthcare experiences that assist them in critically thinking about patient care.

These simulated hospital suites are fully-equipped with medical supplies and technologies using high fidelity Human Patient Simulators, including adult, obstetrical, and pediatric manikins to prepare students to provide safe, competent and compassionate care in the clinical setting.

Detroit Mercy recently purchased vacant land abutting the south end of the McNichols Campus, behind Shiple Hall. Plans for this space include an intramural sports field for student competitions and potential gathering spaces where the University community can relax and enjoy the outdoors.

Although we try to anticipate as much as possible, we understand questions about the plans will arise. We want to keep the conversation open during the renovation process. Please use the form below to contact the McNichols Campus Renovation Project team.

Just as park visitors experienced a remarkable feat of landscape architecture and civil engineering during the Sesquicentennial, future users will come to know FDR Park as a world-class destination for ecology, recreation, art, and design. This is also the first time in Philadelphia that a park plan has incorporated climate change projections and a comprehensive hydrology study, aligning community priorities with the realities of the hotter, wetter future our city faces.

During the planning process, the project team spoke to over 3,000 community members and stakeholders in 7 different languages through surveys, paid Park Ambassadors, stakeholder interviews, community meetings, and community design workshops. Since the unveiling of the FDR Park Plan in 2019, we have continued to engage with the community through hands-on workshops, public meetings, stakeholder interviews, surveys, virtual open houses, and in-person Walk and Talks. We plan to continue community engagement throughout the entire implementation of the Park Plan.

Preliminary project meetings are important. These meetings should be scheduled early in the planning stages of a building project. All stakeholders should be included. OPRI facilitates these initial project meetings. Contact OPRI to schedule a meeting.
