Project 1: Sketching Analysis
Project 1 sees students to be producing an A4 booklet documenting our research & analysis on selected historical buildings in the world. We were to research & analyze 5 different buildings coming from 5 different eras respectively - the pre-historic, ancient Egyptian, ancient Greece & Rome, middle ages & renaissance, as well as in the age of enlightenment. The A4 sketched booklet were expected to be done with visual communication style using architectural vocabulary and it is to be rendered. This project intends to contribute to preserving the value of historical buildings among the new generations of young architects.
Reflection:
This project has introduced me to the different historical periods and the evolution of buildings and structure architecturally. I was able to understand many different factors that contribute to and shape the development of an architecture that was well preserved and appreciated by many until today. I was also able to employ appropriate verbal and visual architecture vocabulary to communicate the building types, elements, series and period.
