Project 2A
Experiencing Place - 'Genius Loci’ - Site Analysis & Concept Development
This project started with analysing the site context, by producing a video on the extracted essence of the macro site, Machap Baru and to collect data of both the macro and micro sites. Additionally, we have to interpret the character of the site in the form of sketches and lastly, to present a Design Concept for a Memory Repository.
Outcome:
-
5-10 mins video, documenting the selected theme
-
1 A0 panel axonometric projection drawing of the macro site
-
12 A3 panels of site analysis diagrams
-
1 A3 panel of hand sketches interpreting the key character of place
-
4 A3 panels of plans and section(s)
Site Analysis
Concept Development
Reflection
Before beginning the design process, I discovered how critical it is to perform historical and site analysis. In the second part, it is quite challenging to identify and interpret the characteristics into a generation design idea.
