ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STUDIO 1
Compilation of projects that I have done during this semester
EXERCISE 1 - SELF POTRAIT
In this exercise, I need to draw my self potrait to explain about myself. In this exercise, I draw my face based on photograph that I keep. From that, I realized that I am a person that do not know how to explain about myself. I am also a guy that do not like to show my true colour and just want to be a simple person. I also need to draw my friends potrait and I able to exctract about her almost precisely from outside.
PROJECT 1 - SELF EXPRESSION THROUGH OBJECT
(REPRESENTING ME)
In this project, I had to think various techniques in explaining about myself. At first, I thought I want to present about myself in form of my nicknames because I do not like to tell about myself publicly. But, when I think twice, it is not a big mistake if I try to oppose on what I dont like to. So, I decide to explain about myself and the medium that I used is scuplture. I made a a pair of hands sculpture and I named it "Hands of Hops". You can read why I made this sculpture in this slideshow.
EXERCISE 2 - SPATIAL EXPRESSION
In this exercise, my friends and I was given a bunch of string to build a space somewhere in our campus. We need to attached the string at the suitable place to create some space. We found the best spot in our campus and simply used the strings to build a spiderweb canopy. We pick a place with a few trees and start our spiderweb canopy project. We were able to distribute the workforce and work together because the aim is to involve everyone in the spatial expressing process.
PROJECT 2 - SELF EXPRESSION THROUGH ARCHITECTURAL SPACE
(ME IN SPACE)
After the second exercise, I managed to get some ideas on what I should do next. For the next project, I need to form a group of three. We were asked to combine our expression into an architectural space. After some disscussion, we managed to create something that represent ourself. We named it "Self Despotism", by combination of feelong like lost, confused, split personality, hardship, challenge and development. From this project, I can identify and articulate basic design principles in spatial organization. I also can distinguish and discern the role of scale and proportion in the relationship between the human body and a designed space or enclosure. Lastly, I am able to design and produce a space that embodies and expresses an idea or conceptual narrative.
PROJECT 3 (A) - SPACE FOR THE SELF (MY CITY DREAMSPACE)
In this project, we were given 5 films to watch and choose only one. I decided to choose The Fifth Element movie. Then, we formed a group of 5 to build a site from the film.
PROJECT 3 (B) - SPACE FOR THE SELF (MY CITY DREAMSPACE)
This project is continue from the previous project. But this time, I needed to choose one of the character from the movie. Then, I needed to study the character and the narratives. Finally, I translated them into a space that related to the character that i have studied.
