MELVERN'S E-PORTFOLIO
Individual students are required to choose an architect from a list and an intriguing building created by that architect for the assignment. They must list two structural building materials and five architectural building materials associated with the chosen structure. The concepts and ideas that guided the choice of materials and the building itself should be studied by the pupils as well. Additionally, students must explain how one of the materials utilized in the chosen structure was installed. The results must be displayed on a single A2 size board with all necessary data.
The compilation of the findings needs to be nicely composed in ONE (1) A2 size board that include the following information:
1. A brief background of the architect.
2. Historical background of the chosen building.
3. Clear images and information (properties, location, application, material selection in relation to ideas & concept) of the FIVE (5) architectural building materials and TWO (2) structural building materials respectively.
4. Sketches of one (1) material’s installation on the selected building.
5. Relevant images of the chosen building (floor layout, elevations, three-dimensional perspective etc.).
6. Overall conclusion on the choice and application of materials on the chosen building.
7. References
Project 1
Project 2
Through detailed drawings, students are required to demonstrate their understanding of building construction, emphasizing the connection between design and technical proficiency. Also part of the house 1 : 10 model.
REFLECTION
From this module start from assignment one has pushed me to be more punctual with time even if have another work to do. I realise that doing research about the architect that i chose which is, Antoni Gaudi is really fun and i learn a lot from him to show that the unique form of the building can also perform as structure and more. From second project it allows me to meet amazing new friends that i worked with. They helped me to focus more on my work even though sometimes i was late on group working, but because of their help. I got more discipline from time to time making assignment with them. Whether on drawings, giving idea and model-making.
