        I managed to find some more Pictures, they are a bit blurry but are better than nothing. I heard that when they did one of the restorations they added a Pool which was originally planned but never built. I have found nothing about that in pics or plans. Any Ideas?

        If anyone can find More Reference pics I'd Greatly appreciate it.

          Haven't come across any internal shots.

          i did come across this though, at the bottom of the page there is a link for a high res image, which is nearly 1m long.

          favicon

          (images.google.com)

          any good?

            That link goes to the Freeman House, it looks very similar to the Storer House, but it isn't. I wish there was an Isometric Drawing for the Storer House. I have the Plans though from that page, those are the HABS documents.

              Sorry, my bad, i should have specified, if you follow the link to the page, and scroll down a bit, it is two article underneath the Freeman house image, that was just the link i followed to the website where found the image.

                Driveway.jpg

                I just Traced the Section Cut for the Terrain. At some point I have to figer I'll have to go back and fix it, but for now it works.

                      Well I've Pretty Much Finished the Terraceing on the front of the House, as well as Getting the Terrain to match the photos and Documents.

                      Update.jpg

                      Again any Reference Photos of the Storer House Anyone has would be Greatly Appreciated.

                        Horseman04,

                        That is some really nice work! The concrete detail and the pool are excellent in that last image. All this difficult geometry and the challenge of obtaining good reference materials makes this a real labor of love. Great to see your progress!

                                Wonderfull detail modeling and texturing there. The bush is very nice - what is the (application / library) source? Only crit would be to make a small gap between the edge of the steps and the wall as these would never butt together that tightly.

                                Again - great work!

                                    I would just add that I don't think FLW would allow cutting a pattern (as shown at the edge of the steps) - more likely he would have used a plain border like the wall material.

                                    With TBA interfaces we can analyse what is to be achieved so that IT can help with automation to achieve it.

                                      You'd think that, but according to the HABS Survey Documents It is how I modeled it. Any actual photos anyone has which could confirm or deny this would be much appreciated.

                                          Been a while since I updated, but I've been busy with work and other projects. So this is what Ive done since last update

                                          The majority of the First Floor Tiles have been laid. And I started to mass out the Walls for the First Floor. Until today I thought that the First Floor was all on the same height, apparently I was wrong, looking at the section the two Lower Bedrooms are about four and a half feet lower. So now I have to figure out how the stairs work to continue with the rest of the First Floor.

                                            Excellent work. A careful examination of the photos and HABS drawings shows that the textile blocks were not used for the steps, but rather smaller, plain square blocks.
