Make best use of digital and physical models for Friday.
Both in your analytical and design work.
Establish a unity in your presentation.
Visual and oral presentations should actually follow your concept. Be playful and consistent with them!
Drawings have to be at a specified scale and labelled,
views have to be identified,
ground line - roads - trees - human figure,
north direction indicated,
etc. (by now all this should be automatic)
Encyclopaedia work should now be strongly related to your proposal. Look for references!
Grace
House after 5 years of living by Charles and Ray Eames
Impossible to find on the net - did you get the film form Aj. Moe last year?
If yes please show it to Cherry.
Otherwise, please find description here, and snapshots here.
And have a look at the work of the film-maker Chris Maker.
Fa
Following the introduction to the concept of a palimpsest in architecture (or more appropriate, in urban design), read this text by Bernard Tschumi. You might completely disagree with this design strategy, yet it is important for you to know it. Besides i am sure it will bring light onto some issues you are having.
I recommend you to watch all films by the Thai director Apichatpong Weerasethakul.
I'll pass you those books we talked about tomorrow.
Golfe
Have a look at the superuse website.
Ong
Work!
Document yourself on wood construction and self-construction. (example of the gridshell by Frei Otto)
You are going to make use of those machines in a much more extensive way! I hope you understand the potential of such an idea.
Amy
Define your proposal, and post your researches please. The sections are very important. Draw them at scale 1/100. And gather all necessary information.
Making use of those strange resulting spaces is a great idea. Do not forget that you are not restricted in terms of height.

Shane
Draw at a much bigger scale. You can also start working on physical models.
Prepare at least two A2s explaining your formal researches and explorations, as well as your references.
Ton
Work hard on the precision and the presentation of your idea - both orally and visually.
What is the mystery you are talking about? What are its effects? its causes? Any reference??
Eiab
Concentrate your energy and focus on developing that original idea of stripes.
Go back to your drawings of the walking patterns and start sketching the rhythm and dynamics of those stripes from them.
Ultimately all your ambitions will converge and shape themselves into the system you will establish.
Step by step!
Make the list and study of the existing features (site condition) and the ones you intend to add.
Are they permanent? temporary? transforming?
Cherry
See if Grace has Ray and Charles Eames' film.
Read this short text about Anish Kapoor's Memory.
The work of the painter Giorgio de Chirico might insterest you as well.
Enn
Starbrick by Olafur Eliasson (studied by Golfe for the Encyclopaedia)
Explore the AA Emergent Technologies and Design website.
I believe the great work of Erwin Hauer will also inspire you (to bring into 3D though!).
Geng
Develop your design process in plans (first) step by step, as discussed today.
Then move into the elevation, then in section.
You need to work in detail and subtlety now!
Experiment with shadows (density, rhythm, material, colour, etc.)
N
Develop a precise language and coded diagrams with the terms temporary / permanent / adaptation / relocation/ ... specific to your project
Look at Fonction Oblique by Claude Parent.and Paul Virilio
Pun
Hall of Fragments, installation at the entrance of the Arsenale for the 2008 Venice Biennale.
Also, explore the field of augmented reality. I believe you'll be interested.
Good luck to all!
as usual feel free to ask any question
