We had a meeting yesterday and decided on a group pin-up on next Tuesday.
For this pin-up you should aim to present the personal direction you are willing to pursue for the design of the bridge.
You have to continue collecting information, but from now on you need to be strategic.
We will discuss on Friday your argument (= the way you understand and react to the given brief and site, as well as your personal interests and references, the way you would like to pursue).
For the review on Tuesday, we should be able to understand that
- you have a broad understanding of the site and are able to identify a situation,
- and that from that particular situation, you are willing to develop a specific project according to a concept (argument or idea) that you will have to explain and show.
There is no logical objective way to move from an analysis, and as a matter of fact what we call analyzing is already subjective and already includes personal involvement, projection and thus what we usually call design.
What you choose to look at, the way you choose to look at it and the way you present this information are your first steps into discovering your point of view, your argument and the direction you will take.
It is important now that you become aware of this.
Now, consider what everybody has been researching on, remember and write (for yourself) your first impressions on the given brief, as well as the reference projects you chose to study, and the way you studied them.
All this, well articulated, should give you a very strong basis in order to start the actual process of designing.
We will discuss this on Friday in individual tutorials.
