PROJECT 1
I was required to create 3 mock-up models and 1 final model for this assignment, all based on architectural design principles and elements. In order to create three mock-up models, we must first select one ordering principle (AXIS, SYMMETRY, HIERARCHY, DATUM, RHYTHM, AND REPETITION) and combine it with the primary elements, which are POINT, LINE, AND PLANE. Then, in order to create a new design for the final model, we must combine two mock-up models or use the same principle and components from both. APART FROM THAT, I NEED TO MAKE A TOTAL OF 4 TATTOO STAMPS BASED ON THE VIEWS OF MY FINAL MODEL.

REFLECTION


LIFELONG LEARNING
This TGC came to me as a result of my learning that design is not as simple as ABC since every design you do has a purpose or significance; there is no such thing as anything you design just for fun. Everything you make in design has a cause or purpose, always.


DISCIPLINE SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE
I've conducted study on numerous model-making examples, many of which contain the ordering principles and components. It has broadened my perspective because I never realised how many fascinating and lovely designs could be made from something so basic. Following that, I came to understand how crucial it is for us to recall organising principles and components whenever we are planning or building a model.


thinking & problem solving skills
I don't have any artistic training, thus I hardly ever encounter tasks requiring creativity, design, or even simple sketches for ideas. Since my lecture stated that we communicate with drawings, I must take extra time to improve my thinking regarding pattern design and lay down my ideas on paper to present my teacher and other people.
