Collaboration Reflection:

 This week the project is nearing completion with the architectural and structural models basically complete with some minor polishing required. The landscape and site models are also basically completed with some minor details to be added. Ben's responsibility this week was collaborating with me (Jake) on the interior green spaces, creating natural spaces for inhabitants and visitors of the building. This collaboration is important to ensure that interior and exterior spaces flow together and are not clashing. It was also my responsibility to work with Jack on the lighting model to ensure that there are no clashes between the interior model and the lighting model in terms of the furniture layout and interior spaces. It was also my responsibility to continue working on the interior model, finalising the furniture layout and importing all necessary components. I also had to complete the wall finishes, a task which had to be conducted in the architectural model due to the walls not being accesible in the interior model. Jack's responsibility this week were to implement the lighting grid, using products which he has researched. Creating the lighting grid was made easier due to the accessibility of the company's BIM Components, allowing real world products to be included in the model.

We are well on track this week with the project nearing completion. The interior and lighting models are the ones which need the most work as they are the final steps in the design. Working collaboratively with each discipline has ensured that all clashes have been rectified relatively quickly to avoid more major clashes further down the track.
