Final Poster

This Project is named Photo-montage which means a picture composed by assembling, overlaying and overlapping many different materials or scenes. So, in my project, I created 3 different styles, Dream, Realistic and Abstract styles. They all represent 3 different moods, first one refers to "sad"; second one refers " and third one curious"to. From this project, the most interesting and useful skills I've learned that are understand and explore the concept from other architectures. And then, utilize into our own concept. And also, I improved my computing skills, such as photoshop. However, this is a good experience for me, all of these could influence me in my future design project.

Project 2 is about architecture drawing. In this project, we have to draw the plan and elevation in architecture way and render the plan and elevation. From this project I've improved the architecture drawing and rendering. I used marker to render my project, this is a good way to show the material of the building as it looks simple and nature. On the other hand, I also learned many different methods from my classmates, such as watercolor, color pencil. However, this is a good opportunity for me to improve architecture drawing and rendering skill, and understand the importance of architecture drawing and rendering.

This project is about modeling. It is an interesting project as model making is a very important skill that architects must have. From this project, I've improved my modeling skill. Actually, the 1:200 scale model is more difficult than the 1:50 scale model, because the size is too small, when u cut the material that u have to be very careful and accurate. However, after this project I learned how to make the good models. And also, after tutor gave me  some comments that I could make the perfect model in my future design studio.
