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
The planes are then added in after I decided on my materials. Colourful glass papers are used to play with the projection of coloured shadows.
WEEK 1: INSPIRATIONS AND SKETCH
I kick-started the project by looking at inspirations of waves. The wave element then became a driving force behind my design. I sketched out manually and digitally to explore my possibilities.
I then proceeded to construct my first needle model.
WEEK 2: TEST AND FINAL MODEL
The models are built according to my previous drafts.
REFLECTION
1. DISCIPLINE SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE
At the end of the assignment, I was more familiar with the concept of point, line, plane, and void. I was able to apply my knowledge in my model.
2. THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS
I learned how to think critically to come out with a concept and stick to it.
MY REFLECTION
3. INTRAPERSONAL SKILLS
As the workload is getting more hectic compared to the previous semester, I sharpened my ability to progress along with the class, ensuring that I am always on track.
