PROJECT 3
Designing with Architectural Principles + Materiality
CONTEMPLATIVE PAVILLION
Project Brief
In this project, we were to design a tropical sanctuary at a designated site which is at the Taman Botani Shah Alam. After our site visit at the site, we were grouped in a macro group which we have to make a site data collection from our site visit to further understand our site.
MACRO SITE DATA COLLECTION
Next, we are to form a micro group of 5 and picked 6 microsites that has lake view and come out with their design response vignettes matrix.
DESIGN RESPONSE VINETTES MATRIX
After that, we have a workshop in which individually, we have to choose one of the microsites and produce several site use alternatives to the microsite.
SITE USE ALTERNATIVES
I have chosen to combine alternatives 2,3 and 4 and continued with my design process.
REFLECTION
DISCIPLINE SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE
I was able to put theories of learning about the construction of the building on stilts and staircase into my projects
LIFELONG LEARNING
I was able to record my design process, learned through the process, and I am confident that i will be utilising the new knowledge learned in my next projects
THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING SKILL
I was able to think of a way to combine my site use alternatives together and come up with a complete design.
