Architectural Design I

 The module coordinator, Ar. Lim Wey Shan along with the tutors are passionate and encouraging. They always guide me through the process of the projects and inspires me when I am stuck in the design process. This unit introduces me to the elements and principles of architecture as well as the concept of architecture which is interesting and engaging. 

Project I - Geometry and Form: Architectural Design Elements & Principles

Project 1 was a good opportunity to get to know the concept of the elements and principles. The tutor guided me well through the design process which motivates me to do my best for my first project in university.

Project 1
Shape + Symmetry

Shape + Symmetry

Form from repeating simple shapes such as triangles, circles, and squares to emphasize the symmetrical lines

Line + Repetition

Line + Repetition

Repeating straights line in different weights.

Plane + Hierarchy

Plane + Hierarchy

Form from squares and a big square in the middle to show hierarchy.

Project II - Structure and Body

In this project, we had a chance to work as a group to handle bamboos, and together we create a shading structure using bamboos to be showcased at the uni-square. Throughout the design process, we as a group came up with a few ideas, and then it is further interpreted into our final design which serves to let the user lay and sit down to look up to the sky and chill. I enjoyed the time spent with my team members while working on the bamboo which makes the project more entertaining than working alone. 

Project 2

Project III - Sensory Space

In this project, we are required to create a sensory space to express our feelings in the first year of university. Through this project, I get to explore different types of materials and how they will perform which is interesting. During the design process, I am grateful that my tutor gave lots of support and inspiration that helps me to come up with the final design which makes the process less discouraged.
