Mia Wild

BSc (Hons) Architectural Design & Technology

Howdy! My name is Mia Wild, I am a 3rd year international Architectural Design and Technology student from Buffalo, New York, USA. Displayed is my final year Cardiff Bay Hotel Project which features realistic rendered images, construction drawings and compliances with both client requirements and local building codes. This project began by drafting hand-drawn images and completed using technology such as Revit (a 3D architectural building software), Enscape (an image rendering program), Adobe Photoshop and Adobe InDesign. My hotel brings a rustic warmth to Cardiff Bay and provides 4-star hospitality to its staff and guests. While the overall design can be seen in the photo, a large part of the ADT course is also producing construction drawings to exhibit how parts of a building can be connected together. My final project encompasses a collaboration of everything I’ve learned here while at Cardiff Met between hand-drafting, advanced software programs and architectural research.


Helo! Fy enw i yw Mia Wild, rwy’n fyfyrwraig Dylunio Pensaernïol a Thechnoleg 3edd blwyddyn o Buffalo, Efrog Newydd, UDA. Rwyf yn arddangos fy Mhrosiect Gwesty Bae Caerdydd blwyddyn olaf sy’n cynnwys delweddau realistig wedi’u rendro, darluniau adeiladu a manylion cydymffurfio ynghyd â gofynion y cleient a chodau adeiladu lleol. Dechreuodd y prosiect drwy ddrafftio delweddau a dynnwyd â llaw a’u cwblhau drwy ddefnyddio technoleg megis Revit (meddalwedd adeiladau pensaernïol 3D), Enscape (rhaglen rendro delweddau), Adobe Photoshop ac Abode InDesign. Daw’r gwesty â chynhesrwydd gwledig i Fae Caerdydd gan gynnig lletygarwch 4-seren i’w staff a gwesteion. Er y gellir gweld y dyluniad cyffredinol yn y ffoto, roedd rhan helaeth o’r cwrs DPT yn ymwneud hefyd â chreu darluniau adeiladu i ddangos sut y gellid cysylltu rhannau o’r adeilad â’i gilydd. Mae fy mhrosiect terfynol yn cwmpasu cyfuno popeth rwyf wedi’i ddysgu yma ym Met Caerdydd yn cynnwys drafftio â llaw, rhaglenni meddalwedd uwch ac ymchwil pensaernïol.
