Stan Hywet Hall - Re-Imagined?
Stan Hywet Hall is a 65000 sq foot Tudor Revival Mansion in Akron Ohio. Formerly the home of F.A. Seiberling (cofounder of Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company), the home is now a museum and educational center featuring the manor house itself, its carriage house (where the original idea for AA was formed) and several other outbuildings. I was granted access to the original blueprints of the home, and I am working to construct a model of the home. It will be in a somewhat different style, more of a Grand Lodge / Pacific Northwest Rustic / Parkitecture style.
Early Progress drawing the foundation walls
Continuing to draw in the foundation
Most of the foundation walls constructed
Most of the basement floors installed
A failure of a 3rd party add-on caused the loss of the entire file that I had so far, so I restarted. Im now at the point of extruding the foundation walls and installing the floors for the basement which are at several different elevations
Got the floors done in the basement. Now to construct the basement walls. They will be in a different group so that they can be turned on and off independently
Building the walls on first floor
Continuing to construct walls on the first floor -- you layout the walls first and then you can extrude them to full height
Constructing walls around the office and billiards room
nearing the point of extruding the 1st floor walls -- right now I'm busy cleaning up any missed walls or mis alignments
