Project 1

OBJECTIVES

• To identify architects and their works

• To analyse and ‘diagram’ architectural work of selected architect

• To produce basic architectural compositions of solids, planes, lines and frames.

​

LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THIS ASSIGNMENT

• The ability to recognise architects and their works

• The ability to translate the analysis into architectural diagrams

• The ability to create basic architectural compositions of solids, planes, lines and frames

Project 2

OBJECTIVES

• To encourage your thinking and discussion about space(s) and its qualities through architectural conceptualisation - Architectural design intentions and objectives.

• To show the importance of using the art of crafting and making: drawing(s) and model(s) as a critical design tool in the design process.

​

LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THIS ASSIGNMENT

• The ability to design a simple structure through the use of architectonics.

• The ability to demonstrate a basic level of understanding of materiality and detailing as means to capture experiential qualities of the design.

Project 3

OBJECTIVES The objectives of this project are:

• To introduce the notions of concepts, program and process in architectural design

• To introduce students to the understanding of user specific design requirements

• To introduce the notions of space, form and function in architectural design

• To introduce awareness of site-specific design and the process of site analysis

 

LEARNING OUTCOMES

  • Interpret and analyse simple site context Interpret and analyse users’ characters and needs in relation to the design of a small structure

  • Design a simple building type that meets user requirements and respect site context that balances both internal (architectural spaces/layout/circulation) and external (aesthetics and forms) design values.
