World Domination Log: Final Guitar Center Boards

After weeks of designing and sketch-upping (new word) and endless sleepless nights of drawing we come to the final product. I don't really know what to say about my boards on the blog. The guitar center is meant to be a place for tourists and community members alike, with it's museum exhibits, classrooms, cafe, auditorium/stage indoor and outdoor, and retail.

*Three separate boards

World Domination Log: Guitar Celebration Center Progress

So this progress is definitely after the fact, but I wanted to show a little bit of where my design came from before I uploaded my final boards. I started working in sketch-up to get a better idea of how my form would work, using the plans I already created to dictate where the columns would be placed, and from there altering the angle and direction the column was leaning towards.



As the design progressed I felt that the guitar displays were paramount to the center as guitars were the focus, I spent a bit of time designing different types of guitar displays in sketch-up ending up in what I think looks like a rummage sale.


Here's the design a little farther, working on interior and second floor. Still not with final displays.
