The Module

To Differentiate the 3 sections of the building

- The Ground level Foyer Modules-

-The Exhibit Modules-

-Cafe Cliff Entry Level-

Through the use of different external cladding

- Red Corrugated long run -

-Acrylic-coated polyester panels-

-Stained farmed Pone cladding-

Sliding/Folding wall panels on both side walls of the module will allow the module to be opened/closed Transforming the size of the exhibit spaces.

Feedback week 12 - Now that I've got a good grasp on the "form" of my building in project 2, my mission now is to look at the modules - what are they made of? What materials am I using? And how does it structurally work with rest of the building?

Another key point of issue is; how do they "transform" a space (open/closing of a space) to create a large exhibition space or a small exhibition space. Perhaps sliding walls? This is something I have to look at more closely.

Anyway. In response to Ryan's "sexy link" - I loved the exploded view of the module/container. This is definately something I want to explore with my modules in project 3. >>

Presentation feedback

How cool is this -- I'm actually posting on my blog via my iPhone... Sheesh! the things you can do on a mobile phone these day huh?!

Moving on! Tonight I was given the opportunity to present project 2 (as I was too sick to present last week) and overall it was a good presentation. Things I need to improve on though, is my verbal presentation skills -- the skill of "selling" my assignments. Also I need to further develop on the function of the building - especially the elevator/staircase system - "how does it work??" and how it functions in relation to it's connection with the cliff top entry. I was also asked to do diagrams of people movement through the building to further demonstrate the idea of an "interactive journey" through the building... other than that, good, positive feedback!

Anyway --- I shall carry on with work -- shall update soon with my new "improved" drawings.
