ASSIGNMENT 1:
LANDSCAPE SKETCH WORKSHEET
In this assignment, not only am I required to study and understand the symbols in a master plan, I am given the task to replicate the master plan using artline pens and colour pencils.
Other than that, I have to identify the different hardscapes and softscapes, labeling them in the correct way.
​
To test my understanding to graphic communication skills and rendering skills, I am given the task to sketch and colour plan and elevation for 5 softscapes and 4 hardscapes by applying the correct shading, texturing, and colouring techniques.
MY FINAL WORK
MY REFLECTION
In this assignment, each group was assigned a park in Malaysia to study the macro and micro aspects of it. The main objective of this assignment is to demonstrate fundamental understanding on how to conduct site analysis. Moreover, We were also tested on how well we can distinguish the different elements in a park and how well we arrange those elements on a board in an architectural manner.
​
This assignment has given us the opportunity to further learn and get used to softwares such as Adobe Photoshop and Canva in using creatives ways of graphic communication skills.

PREDECENT STUDY OF EXPERIMENTAL PARK
ASSIGNMENT 3:
THE LANDSCAPE DESIGN PROPOSAL
For the last assignment of this module, we were to work in groups of 5 to design a space for a public figure.
​
To show our understanding on the design process, planning and development of a project, we were to make a landscape proposal for our "client".
​
For the first part, we had to know more about our "client", including his personality, lifestyle, their personal favorites, interests and many more. We were then advised to present our findings creatively, in an infographic manner under "User Profiling".
​
The next part is the conceptual design. there were a number of sections that we need to cover and consider, such as coming up with a project description, constructing a bubble diagram and a conceptual plan with elaborations on the hardscapes and softscapes.
​
With the base plan provided, we were to come up with different spaces, hardscapes and softscapes that will be fitting with our "client's" preference.
