Project Reflection.

After presentation, the feedback was not positive as I missed many points of requirements of this project. Looking back to this semester, I have been struggling to catch up tute classes and number of thoeries. I had medical issues at the beginning of semester so I had to start and join the theme group a bit late but I tried to understand what it needs to take in design progress and got ideas from Yasu's Lecture.

About the my design proposal, I tried to focus on idea and inspiration by nature and Maximising green area for the public of the brisbane CBD. Through using the idea of "adaptive reuse" integrity system I wanted to provide a new urban experience in brisbane future. Also I made big roof top green garden for public so that Brisbane city people can relax and enjoy their resting time.  Simply explain, adapting and acclimating with existing environment and nature is the way of sustainable living of our future.

I think that I have got things to do to broaen computer moelling and rendering skills in various program such as Rhino, max  and read more books to understand our architecture world, also visit and experience many place. These practices and study should be a big help to understand my course work. I feel a bit of regret and shame to miss some work progress due to my medical condition/ spending time for physical treatment but this also is one of unit progress and I feel satisfied about myself have achieved my goal in limited time.

inspiration of facade design/ materials. 2

Water Cube - National Aquatics Centre, China



  Ove Arup and PTW based the "soap bubbles" structural concept on a solution from two Irish professors of physics at Trinity College, Dublin, known as the Weaire-Phelan structure.

+ Architects and designers often seek inspiration from nature. They seek inspiration from water, plants, animals and other natural 'structures' for use in their work. Being inpired and influenced by nature in this way is called "biomimicry" and allows architectural designs to be more energy efficient, structurally sound and also beautiful to behold.
