smantzer: Ideas
We have a new contribution to our bank of ideas. The new set of renderings are from 
smantzer who decided to offer an alternative and more patriotic take on the project.

arch1k: Ideas
Below is a set of sketches depicting what may be described as a visually/schematically open source architecture. First 5 images are open structures that can receive many various dwelling modules and workplace. The structural spires may hold leach-like symbiotic dwelling containers(image 3) along their sides.
The diagram image I (arch1k) made earlier, describes the inner-working of a possible Open Source architecture School.
The last two images are another exercise showing the growth progression of a proposed Open Source mall to be located on the current Tunny's Pasture site, in Ottawa.

Another set of sketches portraying a possible tower complex with retractable containers-spaces(image 1), followed by a tensile structure for the tower(upper image 2), and a sketch of a highway-like garden(lower image 2), schematically depicting a lattice network situation, or if you will, can be interpreted as a stitching between the democratic and republican.

Kit of parts
Bellow is a small selection of 3D models in SketchUp just to get things going sooner. It is a kit of parts to be assembled and reassembled in different ways. Hopefully this will expand quickly as the project moves on.
- arch1k.v01.elmt.03.skp - Modular elements (1-2nd image)
- arch1k.v01.elmt.04.skp - Modular Skyscraper (3rd image)
- arch1k.v01.elmt.opnSrcMall.skp - Open Source Mall(4th image)
- arch1k.v01.elmt.tower.skp - City Tower (5th image)

Site
Site plan of the current White House in *.dwg (AutoCAD) as it was posted on White House Redux site:
3D model of the existing White House site and the surrounding area (see preview). The content has two parts: a more detailed layer of the immediate area, and a more schematic layer of the more distant parts.
- arch1k.site.v001.30.skp - SketchUp
- arch1k.site.v001.30.zip - zipped SpetchUp
