PROJECT 2 :
Tectonics: Design Principles, Anthropometric and Ergonomic Exploration - Isolation Structure
After learning about basic design elements, principles, and transformation in the previous project, in this project students were introduced to the characteristics of different materials and their joints and joinery. In this project, we were tasked to express our personal experiences during this pandemic period through a self-isolation structure. By the end of this project, we should be able to create a scaled model that implements the understanding of tectonic, ergonomics and anthropometric.
DESIGN INTENTION :
My design intention is to create a self- isolation space for resting and being lazy. The design elements and principles used are lines and repetition. The banal action implied in this project is leaning.

REFLECTION :
1. DISCIPLINE SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE
I learned about spatial qualities, tectonic ideology, joineries, ergonomics ,anthropometry and materiality.
2. THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS
I see my self slowly improving my sketching and orthographic drawings since this is my first time.
3. INTRAPERSONAL SKILLS
I was able to manage my time wisely in completing the project.
