 TASK: In a group of 4,we were to select a building and to study the function of the building type and how its serves the community within its vicinity. From our observations on site,we had to identify the different architectural elements (exterior and interior) that had been adapted to the site to best serve the practical and functional needs of the local community as compared to the similar building type found in another region,and how local technology, materials, climatic conditions, history, culture and beliefs influenced the design of this building. We had to produce a precedent study on the building as a group.The building we chose was the Klang Fire Station,Balai Bomba Klang.  The report on the Klang Bomba is available under the post,"History 2 Report" INDIVIDUAL This project required us to study a historical building on a city for Western architecture influences. From observations on site, we were to identify architectural components (exterior and inter...

PROJECT 1 FAMOUS PEOPLE, FAMILIAR FACES DIAGRAMMATIC ABSTRACTION TASK: In a group of 5,we were to produce a complete set of architectural drawing of the selected project (private residence) on A3 size tracing paper. We were required to investigate and formulate our findings into a set of 5 models(6x6x6 cm). The models had to be precise and informative to express the analysis of the ideas hidden in the project assigned.Using no more than three colours,the models had to be well crafted and beautifully made to rest on a A3 MDF board. Our given architect was,Mario Botta.

Project 1 Self Expression Through Object Task: To produce an artwork or art form as a creative representation of the self,using any medium of choice. Reflections: The learning outcomes intended were to -Identify and abstract theme/ideas of the ‘self’ -Construct a representational piece of art based on the initial ideas that have been abstracted and   redefined through the process of translation and interpretation This assignment enabled me to generate ideas and abstract concepts for design.It also helped me explore various approaches to design thinking and production. Project 2 Me in Space Task: Produce a 1:1 installation that encompasses a space and evokes the representative spatial quality.This is a cardboard installation that measures up to a volume of no more than 1.5mx1.5mx2m. On an A3 panel,explain the design process and final installation.                             ...
