PROJECT 1:
DESIGNER'S JOURNEY:
ELEMENTS OF DESIGN
TASK
In this assignment, students were to produce an A5 accordion booklet. The content will consist of elaborations and explanations on the design elements observed from black and white photographs, photograph by ourselves. Other than that students were also required to produce one A3 sheet of analysis from the painting Guernica.
MY REFLECTION
What is a structure? How do you design something to accommodate human needs? How does tectonics come into play? In this project, we are required to construct an isolation structure fitted for a banal action that reflects our self-isolation experience, while considering the tectonics, ergonomics, anthropometrics as well as materiality.
DESIGN INTENTION
To design a lounging structure that shows a seamless change in line and space, leading the user from intimidated to acceptance, in a dynamic and energetic manner.

REFLECTION
In this project, I was able to apply what I learnt from project 1 into my project 2, while considering multiple additional sections. This was my first time using architecture to tell a story- my self-isolation story. I utilized the chosen banal action to assist the feelings I was trying to convey. Although there are still improvements to be made, I am satisfied with what I have managed to come up with.
1. DISCIPLINE SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE
I learned about tectonics, ergonomics and anthropometry.
2. LIFELONG LEARNING
I see myself slowly improving in sketching and drawing orthographic drawings.
3. INTRAPERSONAL SKILLS
I was able to manage my time wisely in completing the project.
