Project 1: Geometry & Form: Expressions through Architectural Design Elements & Principles
Project Overview:
This project serves to showcase students' exploration process to understand the design process and application of architectural design elements, principles and form transformation. Students go through series of workshop to learn to translate ideas through various design principles, translation, and interpretation to transform diagrams into 3-dimensional design. The Serial Geometry Tattoo Transformation workshops guides students and tutors to work closely in a vigorous design process.
Design Intention:
Through the understanding of what 'layering' means, my group intended to form models that use the design principle - variety, to compose and develop models that express 'layering'. The transformation used in the development of the 3 final models were addition, subtraction, rhythm, & interlocking.

Reflection:
This project introduced me to the fundamentals of design which are the design elements, principles, organization, and form transformation techniques. I was able to work with my peers and tutors to employ architectural design elements and principles in creating an architectural composition. Through the process of producing design concepts, I learned to do manual drawing and model-making that represents my design and communicate my ideas.
