On Thursday we presented our "exhibition space". The brief was abstract, but i felt that it was so important that i explored my design theories about deconstructive deign and composing it with contemporary. I focused on developing a already existing public space and improving the spatial design as well as providing a function. So i chose a bus-shelter, as i saw this to attract and serve all target markets. I needed that space to be simple yet carry the design language that i wanted to explore and achieve within my spatial design for mu building.
I liked my bus-shelter, but it was so hard to determine what the lecturers wanted, and looking at what the class presented, with such diversity, it is really hard to pinpoint where one stands. but considering that my design was finally finalized at my SECOND crit, the day before the presentation - i think i pulled off what i was aiming for...
On Friday, after another sleepless night, we had to submit our 3D cad rendering. Oh... that was the lowest point, CAD was "killing" me! Having not been using 3D cad for 2 years - i had to teach myself all over again. I suppose it was a really good exercise, but what i submitted looked like a magazine cut-out collage... oops! but in all honestly, as shocking as it was, i learnt a lot, and can only hope that with more practice - i will improve.. WATCH THIS SPACE :)
