Project 3: Designing with Architecture Principles + Materiality + Context + User: Tropical Solitary Haven
For this project, students are tasked to design a tropical solitary haven at Wawasan Recreational Park, Puchong. The designed structure has to be for a clean and healthy living and working environment with access to nature. With a maximum space of 100 sqm, it has to accommodate 2 people and must correspond to the immediate site context. The design of the structure must demonstrate the student's design intentions through the application of architectural principles, materiality, and constructability in creating a memorable spatial experience.
Reflection:
From this project, I had to interview my sister in order to find out what her preferences are and how her personality is really like which resulted in me realizing that I won't be able to get along with her easily. I also had to think very hard in order to create a design that is able to accommodate 2 conflicting personalities. From the feedbacks I received, I learned that in order to convey my design intention better, I will need to use more architectural diagrams and other forms of visual interpretation to convey my ideas better.
