Project 3
presentation board and model making process 30%
In this project, we were assigned the goal of introducing and advancing 3D modeling techniques for an architectural design project. The objective was to cultivate proficiency in visualizing and effectively communicating architectural ideas, as well as conveying a nuanced understanding of space and form.
process (what i've done)
Scale Model Creation:
-
Begin with the physical creation of a scale model, ensuring accurate representation of architectural elements.
-
Incorporate materials that align with the design concept and future presentation boards.
Orthographic Drawings:
-
Use the scale model as a reference to produce precise orthographic drawings, showcasing different views (plan, elevation, section).
-
Emphasize accuracy and attention to detail in capturing the design's architectural elements.
Exploded Axonometric:
-
Develop an exploded axonometric drawing, highlighting key components of the design to convey spatial relationships and connections.
-
Ensure clarity in communication through appropriately labeled and detailed exploded views.
Integrated Presentation Board:
-
Combine elements from abstract drawing, tattoo stamps, concept, ergonomics, design principles, materiality, and detail drawing into a single A1 presentation board.
-
Express the design concept artistically, incorporating symbolic representations inspired by the design, illustrating underlying ideas and inspiration, showcasing user-centric design principles and materiality, and highlighting specific architectural details.
-
Ensure the integrated board effectively communicates the design narrative, concept, and intricate details.
Review and Refinement:
-
Regularly review and refine each component based on feedback.
Final Presentation:
-
Compile the scale model and integrated presentation board into a cohesive and communicative final presentation.

reflection
In this assignment, creating an architectural scale model and an integrated presentation board was a dynamic exploration of the convergence between physical and visual design. Crafting the model demanded precision, translating it into drawings deepened my spatial understanding, and integrating diverse aspects into a single board required strategic thinking. The iterative process enriched my skills, culminating in a final presentation that effectively conveyed the design's narrative, concept, and intricate details.

Communication Skills:
Engaging in the architectural scale model and presentation board project was a dynamic exercise in communication. Crafting an integrated presentation board demanded adeptness in conveying design narratives through various visual and symbolic elements. It highlighted the significance of effective communication in architectural representation.
Intrapersonal Skills:
The project significantly contributed to my intrapersonal skills. Managing oneself and being self-reliant (6.1) became crucial in navigating the intricate design choices and decisions. The iterative process prompted continuous reflection (6.2), fostering a deeper understanding of my evolving design choices. Furthermore, embodying Taylor's core values (6.3) was evident in the meticulous attention to precision and creative expression throughout the project. This experience reinforced the importance of self-management, introspection, and a commitment to fundamental values in the architectural design process.
