A. Project Title / Subtitle
FUNERAL PARLOR
B. Design Brief
Funeral homes are places where you can go to have a funeral service for someone who has died. They
typically include caskets and urns, but they may also offer other services like cremations, pre-arrangement,
burial plots, and more.
DRAWING REQ. PTS. SCORE
Funeral homes can vary in size from small family-owned
businesses to large corporations that serve many SITE DEVT. PLAN 15

D. Design Goals and Objectives
Provide Natural lighting and ventilation for all the spaces.
Observe proper location of entrances/exits, security, and privacy & hierarchy of space/s.
Interior spaces and façade design concepts must be of a peaceful and calming ambience.
Observe and study the circulations and interrelationship of spaces.
E. Design Criteria / Presentation
SITE DEVELOPMENT PLAN
Showing technical description, boundaries, orientation and position of proposed building/structure in
relation to the lot, existing or proposed access road and driveways and existing public utilities/services.
Existing buildings within and adjoining the lot shall be hatched and distances between the proposed
and existing buildings shall be indicated.
SDP drawing must be fully rendered using ANY coloring medium following standard drafting and
presentation on a one (1) A3 size paper or alike IF these materials are available, otherwise ANY plain
white paper will do.
FLOOR PLANS
Drawn to scale of not less than 1:100 showing gridlines with complete identification of rooms or
functional spaces.
Floor plans should reflect the column grid & flow pattern of the project.
Provide in your floor plans the following important drawing details.
- Section Lines
- Property line with label
- Grid lines
- Dimensions
- Roof lines with label
- Space Label/ Identification
- Orientation tag
- Columns
- Furniture & fixtures
- Doors & windows
- Floor elevation tags
- Floor elevation tags
- Other drafting standards
FLOOR PLAN drawing must be fully rendered using ANY coloring medium following standard drafting
and presentation on a one (1) A3 size paper or alike IF these materials are available, otherwise, ANY
plain white paper will do.
INTERIOR PERSPECTIVES
Follow your submitted plan and layout in doing the interior perspective.
Perspective drawn at any convenient scale (ACS) and taken from a vantage point (eye level) and
must be proportional to paper size.
Show the details and designs of major architectural interior elements, wall partitions, furnishing /
finishes, furniture, fixtures, equipment/ appliances, etc.
Must be fully rendered using ANY coloring medium following standard drafting and presentation. Use
one (1) A3 size paper or alike IF these materials are available, otherwise, ANY plain white paper will
do.
EXTERIOR PERSPECTIVE
Follow your submitted relevant drawings in doing the exterior perspective.
Perspective drawn at any convenient scale (ACS) and taken from a vantage point (eye level) and
must be proportional to paper size. Project the structure in a 2-point NORMAL VIEW PERSPECTIVE.
To lend architectural significance to your exterior perspective, include also entourage elements [trees,
plants/shrubs, cars, fences and gate, street lamps, sky, road, sidewalk, animal figures, human figures,
etc.].
Must be fully rendered using ANY coloring medium following standard drafting and presentation. Use
one (1) A3 size paper for the Exterior Perspective or alike IF these materials are available, otherwise
ANY plain white paper will do.
