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
I think space, architectural space, is my thing. It's not about facade, elevation, making images, making money. My passion is creating space. - Peter Zumthor
PROJECT 1:
"POINT AND LINE" + "PLANE AND VOID"
The first assignment was a kick-start for me into space studies and architecture modeling. We were required to build models with needles, strings and other materials to express our way to exploring with points, lines, and planes. It was also a kick-off for me to learn ways to communicate with visuals- sketches, diagrams, drawings.

PROJECT 2:
"UNITY AND VARIETY" + "RHYTHM AND REPETITION"
PROJECT 3:
"HUMAN AND SPACE" + "COLOUR, TEXTURE AND SHADE, SHADOW"
As for the last project, we were to analyze the key features of parasitic architecture from modern examples and design a space that fits the theme.
​
The design for this assignment unlike the previous assignment requires us to consider the site information. Therefore before the design process, site analysis was conducted to understand our limitations and opportunities.
​
The design phase requires us to take inspiration from everyday objects and turn them into our own unique shape and form. We were to document the process in sketches and diagrams.
