In any house or apartment built, the bathroom is always big enough to include at least one toilet, one sink and one shower, some apartments may have more than this, but for the purposes of my minimalistic, natural disaster preparedness apartment i will only have one bathroom with the bare minimum. 

I was also told to make my apartment more proportional. My apartment had beds and fridges that were tall and proportional to the apartment size, but my doors were very short and any person living in my apartment would not be able to walk through the doors standing up straight. Also when I make my final apartment I will make my bathroom walls full size instead of the very short walls I am using now. When walking through all apartments they are proportional to the person living in it. The doors and beds are all proportional to the apartment size.]]> 2019-03-21 02:04:45 UTC https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/343604608 parkerjd https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/343606045 When doing this experiment I noticed that only two of my walls were holding the weight of the 10kg, this was caused by the unevenness of my cutting and when making my real apartment, the construction would be very precise. 

After taking the weights off the tape had broke and the four outside walls had collapsed and the hot glue could not support all the weight by itself and then also broke off. In most apartment built today they are built with materials that allow it withstand heavy weight for it will be supporting other apartments. Since my apartment will need to hold more pressure and weight then most I will use heftier materials that can hold more weight in my real apartmen]]> 2019-03-21 02:13:27 UTC https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/343606045 parkerjd https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/343606671 2019-03-21 02:17:50 UTC https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/343606671 parkerjd https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/343606915 During the weight test, my apartment had been dropped and caused the apartment to completely fall apart.

This apartment is not only minimalistic but allows homeowners to be protected from natural disasters. This includes cyclones, tornadoes, hurricanes, etc... This idea was created after researching and finding our the high demand in housing and apartments that are small and can be stacked on top of each other creating more housing without using as much area as houses or townhouses. 

Since todays generation is generally looking for more modern houses with many windows, but also provide a unique vibe, the house that I create must be able to meet all of these requirements, while also being able to protect people and their belongings from natural disasters. By creating this modern home that has a purpose more than to be lived in it will attract clients that are within their 20's and 30's, but also clients that live in disaster prone areas. Since this home is accommodating to young people it will also only accommodate to 1-2 people. There is one master bedroom and one bathroom that would only suit 1-2 people and not an entire family. This could limit the target audience, for families would not be looking at my apartment because it would be too small to accommodate a family the size of 3-5.

This design was meant to be built in an area around many other homes, or on top of each other this way the home can save space and this way the large population of 7.7 billion people can be accommodated with homes that are built on top of each other.

When constructing the model for the home, the materials used were very flimsy and did not look very professional withe drawings and pencil marks on it. When the clients look at this model it is having a negative impact on them because the materials are not good quality and it makes the model and design look unprofessional and the clients can not take it seriously. To have a better impact on the clients I will use greater quality materials to build the model that can be painted and textured to make the clients see themselves living in the house and this can sway them into buying the house.]]> 2019-04-09 13:57:33 UTC https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/349937272 parkerjd https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/349951568 The apartment will positively effect people living in areas that are natural disaster prone.

The research I have done has showed me that I should make an apartment that is minimalistic and should be a small enough apartment that it can be easily moved from from the building site to the final destination. This is the definition of modular housing. From seen in other modular houses most of them have plenty of windows, but they were just regular houses, not natural disaster preparedness apartments. From asking someone that lives in a natural disaster area I have gathered information that states that when making the product there should be protective glass on the ceiling to give the apartment a homey feel but they can be covered up by a case.

The solar panels will be all that remain on the ground floor. When making the model I need to take into consideration that the apartment will need to be put into the ground after being made and therefore must be light enough to transfer from on place to another.After conferring with someone from an area that is prone to tornadoes and hurricanes they had told me that they are looking for an apartment that is not far away from society and allows for them to get easily in and out of the apartment.]]> 2019-04-10 01:44:51 UTC https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/350191093 parkerjd https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/350191156 Size
Shipping containers come in 2 sizes:
"20ft" containers -
6.06x2.44.2.60 meters
"40ft" containers -
12.20x2.44x2.60 meters

Area
The apartments purpose is natural disaster preparedness, the apartments would have to vary on where they are made because different areas around the world require these apartments.

Furniture
The furniture and appliances used to furnish the apartment would have to be small, light and contain little to no wood to ensure that the apartment and the things within the apartment will last, small and light so that they can be bolted to the ground and will not collapse on itself. Wood will rot eventually and we try to avoid the apartment decaying.

Materials
Depending on the buyer we may need to use materials other than bricks and metal to make it more affordable. These materials could include, so variables of wood, and cheaper metals.

Electricity
The apartment will generate electricity through solar power, by doing this the apartment will need to be about half a meter from the surface where about 6 solar panels will be used. The wiring for this part of the process will not be difficult to install.

These high ceilings effect the temperature for the hot air rises leaving the ground floor very cold. This results in an overuse of our heaters for they are working to hard and the electricity bill is more expensive then what it would be if the ceilings were lower.

Another flaw in the building design is that within the middle of the school there are classrooms that have no windows to let in natural light. This flaw is caused by the largeness of the school and the incapability to put windows in class rooms that are in the middle. This causes the school to may more money for electricity to keep the lights on all day instead of teachers using the natural light.]]> 2019-04-11 00:10:59 UTC https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/350589732 parkerjd https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/350611027

White Foam boards come in multiple thicknesses, but most commonly 3mm and 5mm. These solid boards can be used as a base for models created from foam and other light materials. You can, also, use them to construct walls, and choose the thickness based on the scale. If the interior wall will not be visible, then the thickness doesn’t matter.
• Cork sheets are textured brownish sheets which are less thick and more flexible than foam boards. They are easier to handle and cut but they can break easily.
• Foam sheets are flexible but not easily breakable. They come in colors and small thickness; they can be cut easily with scissors.
• Wood can be used for modeling, especially Balsa wood which can be cut easily and painted. Wooden boards can also be used as a base for the heavier models. Balsa strips can be used for structures with the wooden skeleton, or to show trusses.]]> 2019-05-30 02:09:00 UTC https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/364523767 parkerjd https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/364523935 Question 4
 - When looking at a home that keeps you and a family safe,  there are requirements that allow the home equilibrium between keeping a family safe and keeping a family comfortable:

> Have a home that is above ground to keep the water from entering the house

>No carpets in case it does get wet, the carpet wont get damaged

Before selecting a lot to build your new home, make sure you are not building in a flood plain. By purchasing a lot not in a flood plain, you can protect your home from routine flooding, lower your monthly insurance cost and help your home appreciate faster. Look for lots with higher elevation than the local flood level and avoid lots that sit in a depression or back up to drainage ditches or retention ponds. ]]> 2019-05-30 02:31:08 UTC https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/364528545 parkerjd https://padlet.com/parkerjd/dql27cnm70c9/wish/364529737 Question 8
