Assignment One for ARCH1390- Digital Representation Studio has been an interesting journey so far. Each week activities seemed to focus on different elements of a design process. While at time this was hard to understand I began to formulate ideas around my central designer and his inspired works. Beginning with contextual research of my chosen industrial designer Marc Newson, I investigated the way in which he generates ideas and his designs and how there is always a central theme such as fluid flowing curves or bold distinct lines and shapes.
As a student doing Architectural computing the paper models were an exciting way to represent architectural space. Fused with the creation of an environment and spore creatures I enjoyed how there was no limit to what we could design. The habitat for our creatures could be anything that our minds generated. It also had to be presented in way that was architectural such as interiors, external and section views. It was then only once I reanalysed my paper model inspired space that the creatures could live I began to contemplate its architectural value.
Design decisions changed every week as I quickly saw my space develop into something I never thought I could design. The link of the assignment with Build AR is by far the most enjoyable part of the assignment so far. It has changed the way I think about representation today, especially as what we see on a flat piece of paper, cannot really be seen in reality. Reality becomes ambiguous, augmented and anything we want!. This is why I changed my design to a much more compact space with the same characteristics s so that it could be clearly represented using this tool as an architectural space rather that a large spaceship looking structure.
Looking at what is left of assignment one, the final poster and Build AR models; I can finally see a point in the earlier arbitrary weekly tasks as they set a foundation to what the final creation could be.
