Mimosa Park Elementary School Celebrates 1 Year Past Substantial Completion

On Tuesday April 14th, Mimosa Park Elementary School celebrated 1 year since its new HMS-designed kindergarten wing was completed, ahead of schedule, by Percy J Matherne Contractor.  To commemorate this, we've completed and posted the final versions of the timelapse videos we took on our weekly visits, over the course of the construction of the project. Each image represents approximately 1 week of time elapsed, across a total of about 16 months, from December 2012 to April 2014.




We've also included our initial renderings at the beginning and the end, for comparison to the final product.   Note that the pictures have deliberately not been color-corrected until the final images, to see how the light changes as glass and electric lights are added and/or turned off.  Also, the building was too big to fit in the camera, so each of these pictures is an auto-stitched panorama, which sometimes leads to interesting artifacts at the seams.   These were deliberately left in to keep the images un-biased.

There are six timelapse videos of the same project in the playlist above.  Their individual links are:
