EXP 3 | Week 5 Independent Study: Adding Volume to the Plan

Create a 3 dimensional model of the school in SketchUp following the plan that you had created. Export the draft of your bridge/school to Lumion and post 2 images of it to your blog.

EXP 3 | Week 4 Studio Work: Custom Textures

Movement can be understood as linear, rotational and scalar translation. Draw a series of 6x6 textures exploring each of those definitions of movement. Add 3 words that help you understand movement and create a series of 6 textures for each of those.

EXP 3 | Week 3 Studio Work: Formulating the Plan

In groups of 3 review the PDF showing a series of architectural plans and select one to use as the precedent for your school. Each student's selection should be driven by their developing architecture theory. They should justify this to their teammates.

Once students have made their selections they should spend about an hour modifying, extending, transforming, adjusting or otherwise developing their chosen plan to reflect the spaces required in the brief.

EXP 3 | Week 2 Independent Study: Lumion Environment

Make two elements move in your design.

Upload two images to your blog showing the moving elements in different positions relative to the base architectural form. Think carefully about how your view changes as the elements change position and try to capture that difference in your still images.

EXP 3 | Week 2 Studio Work:Two Point Perspective Sketches

In consultation with your tutor select two sets of perspectives from last week and redraw them using two point perspective method.

With respect to the 3D model of UNSW, Kensington, Australia and the resource material on The Bridge add additional massing elements to those perspectives that begin to provide volume for the functional spaces required by the brief; these additional massing elements need not be rectangular.

Under each One Point Perspective sketch write a few words that connect with your relationship to the prisms and also allude to your theory from week one. The 18 sentences short sentences should be different.
