Lullaby Factory by Studio Weave 20th February 2013 Description Lullaby Factory, Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children Studio Weave with Structure Workshop, AB3 Workshops and Jessica Curry Studio Weave has transformed an awkward exterior space landlocked by buildings into the Lullaby Factory – a secret world that cannot be seen except from inside the hospital and cannot be heard by the naked ear, only by tuning in to its radio frequency or from a few special listening pipes.The multi-phased redevelopment of Great Ormond Street Hospital, in London’s Bloomsbury area, means that the recently completed Morgan Stanley Clinical Building and the 1930s Southwood Building currently sit very close together. The latter is due to be demolished in 15 years, but in the intervening period large windows in the west elevation of the MSCB look directly onto a piperidden brickwork facade, with the gap between the two less than one metre in places.In our competition entry we proposed that the Southwood Building, with its oodles of mysterious pipes and plant is not really the Southwood Building, but the Lullaby Factory, manufacturing and releasing gentle, beautiful lullabies to create a calming and uplifting environment for the young patients to recover in.

Our aim for this project was to re-imagine the Southwood façade as the best version of itself, accepting and celebrating its qualities and oddities; and rather than hiding what is difficult, creating something unique and site specific.

The Lullaby Factory, Great Ormond Street Hospital referbishment in a different way. The topic theme about Talking and Hearing Architecture which is seldom can be seen and unique. The original plan sketches looks like the wonderland and unrealistic. However, Studio Weave done the project and it looks really nice, attractive. Less horoble than it used to be. The third picture shows the corn, people can tuning in to its radio frequency or from a few special listening pipes. And different pipes made of different material, so that uncommon colours and reflective makes the whole project more real and miserable. Even this scence takes people back into late 80s age. Mixed with the industrial fog and smell. The classical music is flying in the sky which consist a beautiful dream picture. On the other hand, there are some disadvantages as well. Some of the listening pipes and machines looks a little big weak, and over polished. Which in the other words is beautiful but not useless, and it is hard to clean as well. There is no supporting for the building. However these pipes also share the support with the walls which is means bring more grave to the side structure.

10

We have designed a fantasy landscape reaching 10 storeys in height and 32 metres in length, which can engage the imagination of everyone, from patients and parents to hospital staff, by providing an interesting and curious world to peer out onto. Aesthetically the Lullaby Factory is a mix of an exciting and romantic vision of industry, and the highly crafted beauty and complexity of musical instruments. The Lullaby Factory consists of two complimentary elements: the physical factory that appears to carry out the processes of making lullabies and the soundscape. Composer and sound artist Jessica Curry has composed a brand new lullaby especially for the project, which children can engage with through listening pipes next to the canteen or from the wards by tuning into a special radio station.

Fig.4 Lullaby Factory side view

Further more,so is there any other possibility to improve this project? The material use is mainly in metal and paint with different colour. They have the protect to avouid the raining. The pipes are well oraganised so that people in the building cannot see these things and window can still be open flexible. Apart from that, these staff occupied a lot of space as well. And some time looks too big to the environment, sadly, from the bottom view the horns is too small to see the details. In other words, like the sketches, the pipes looks like stems and the horns are the metal flowers madly climb on the side wall of the hospital. Some clockwork sign detail looks fake as earlier science fiction scence. Cannot join the environment aroud. Maybe because there is no enough finacial estimate. Like the machine shows in the first picture, it is better to delete it rather than have a strange cylinder in front of the windows. All in all, this project shows that architecture can be fun and children likes these kind of architecture, people need it as well. Beautiful and wonderfully engaging for all age groups. This is the kind of architecture you really need to experience in person.

The Longest Bench Information

personal experience

THE LONGEST BENCH The longest bench in Britain was opened to the public in Littlehampton, West Sussex on the 30th July 2010. The project was initiated by Littlehampton residents and entrepreneurs Jane Wood and Sophie Murray, the mother and daughter pair responsible for the East and West Beach Cafés.

Sometimes, people always have very good wonderful imagination, architecture is never have the end, always still have room to improve. Perfect is not existing. Some of the thought is too surreal that technology cannot reach the level. Some projects are nice, but the most big problem is there are not enough financial support. The longest bench is a very successful example.

To inspire and develop the project, Studio Weave worked with pupils from Connaught Junior School who explored what makes Littlehampton’s seaside unique and offered insightful ideas including the bright colour pallet and dynamic shelters.

First of all, the location is good which is ac t the coast, along the beach. Then, the timber is 100% reclaimed from sources, idea is recycle and sustianable environment. it is painted by different collour mainly in red orange and yellow. Gives some passion to the beach in the summer, and shows warmly during the winter.

The design allows the landmark bench to keep growing up to at least 621m, seating over 800 and putting Littlehampton in the record books. The first phase was funded through a £450,000 grant from the Sea Change Programme run by the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment (CABE). More than 200 of the timber slats have been engraved with personal messages of dedication by local residents and businesses.

MATERIALS The bench is made from thousands of tropical hardwood slats. The timber is 100% reclaimed from sources including old seaside groynes and rescued from landfill. Tropical hardwoods are some of the most robust and long lasting timbers in the world and they have a proven track record in marine environments. The bench uses more than a dozen different species arranged to express the natural variation in colour and tone from pale blonds to warm pinks and rich browns. The beautiful variety of reclaimed timbers are interspersed with splashes of bright colour wherever the bench wiggles, bends or dips. The coloured bars are made from stainless steel box sections dipped in Nylon-11, a polymer enamel. The brightly coloured bars are arranged to create a subtly changing colour scheme from pink, yellow and orange at the east end to purple, blue and green at the west. The support structure for the bench is made from stainless steel, a 100% recyclable and on average 70% recycled material (Steel Construction Institute). The two shelters are steel monocoque structures spray coated with Aluminium Bronze which gives them their golden finish.

Fig.8 The longest bench part

People always worried about the cost, the bench can be curve some personal messages as long as someone will donate some money. Thus, local residents and businesses gave a big support of this project. Due to the help of these people’s help. Finally the bench is done properly. One of the interesting things is the curve inside the cube look many ‘8‘ in it. It is not only for people to sit have a rest, but also a playground for the kids. Children can climb in it. To feel the wood history, people can touch it, smell it, look it,read it, even image the story behind the personal messages. The cube is also a shelter which provide the shadow and protect the rain out of the bench to make the bench can be saved more time. Over time, the bronze shelters will settle into their coastal environment naturally gathering salt streaks and verdigris on the more exposed areas while maintaining a warm golden glow inside. So, with the time flow, this part of bench will be more beatiful and became a part of history in the end.

Bournemouth Seafront

Introduction

The Seafront Strategy identified that signifi cant parts of the seafront are currently largely indistinguishable from one another. In an attempt to address this issue and make the seafront more legible the Strategy subdivided the study area into 16 ‘Character Areas’. The 16 areas are generally focussed on an existing or proposed hub of activity which often coincides with an access point onto the promenade. Through our Stage 1 Baseline Review and Analysis work we established that a number of the 16 ‘Character Areas’ had a common theme or character which could be grouped to establish an overarching character framework plan within which the 16 areas would be identifi able as key focal points for activity rather than individual character areas.

Character Area Definitions Our overarching character framework plan establishes 4 seaparate character areas. These have evolved in response to one or more of the following factors which infl uence the visitor’s experience and perception of the landscape. The Character Areas are not intended to be strictly defi ned or separated ‘on-the-ground’ as each area will naturally bleed into the next. In addition, certain landscape elements are likely to be consistent along the entire promenade and therefore transend character areas. Nevertheless the principles and strategies for the architectural and landscape elements within each of the areas should seek to reinforce the character of each area as a means of developing a distinctive sense of place unique to Bournemouth.

Sometimes, people always have very good wonderful imagination, architecture is never have the end, always still have room to improve. Perfect is not existing. Some of the thought is too surreal that technology cannot reach the level. Some projects are nice, but Fig.10 Cliff Boardwalk visualisation the most big problem is there are not enough financial support. Bournemouth is a very nice coastal city in the Southwest of England which is the best place to visit during the summer holiday. The same as China most famous tourism costal city- Dalian. Thus, the bournemouth Seafront refurbish and designed in association with Peter Brett Associates / abir architects / Studio Fractal / Fourth Street. This is a whole change of the 5.5 mile seafront, including lots of the details which is the suitable design for the Bournmouth. First modern thing is Tree top walk visualisation, create a high level, over-cliff (tree-top) cycle and pedestrian route with two new bridge crossings at Middle Chine Fig.12 Metrobeach Promenade visualisation and Durley Chine. Develop Alum Chine car park as a potential economic driver for improvements to The Chines and to provide additional visitor car parking. Then establish a distinctive and world-class space at Pier Approach,Pull Lower Gardens through into Pier Approach.(Fig1.20) This will let people able to have a better personal experience, create some small pier and put some sculptures on it. Not only for a craft, but also a shleter. Interestingly, tall palm trees along the coast line and a cliff Boardwalk makes the seafront more attractive to the tourists. Really nice view can be showed on the cliff, also as a exercise route or even cycling route.

Information Newington Green House Islington, London Project completed: 2005 Build cost: £175,000 The house fills the whole of a tiny derelict site at the end of a Victorian terrace in Islington and attempts to heal a scar in the urban fabric. The warm tones of the brick and joinery blend in with the 1970s flats to the north as well as the adjacent Victorian house. A bed of brightly coloured flowers offers a moment of joy on the street. Internally the exposed brickwork is painted and softened by timber linings. Each room has a distinct character determined by its form and the positioning of its windows. The sequence of spaces is linked by an open staircase, a finely crafted element lined with cupboards and shelves that provides a place for storage and display. The house sits practically on the pavement yet has huge windows. The tension between security and exposure creates a dynamic relationship between private and public realms. It is at once hard and functional as well as open and welcoming. Shortlisted for RIBA Awards 2006. Runner-up, Best single house, Brick Awards 2004 Notes: Occupying a site at the end of a Victorian terrace, the house is set over four storeys and measures 100 sq m Externally, the house is faced with dark Ibstock brick. It sits well within its context, the materials echoing those found on the Victorian houses to one side and the 1970s block to the other.

personal experience Prewett Bizley Architects are an award winning practice based in east London and Somerset. Through our built work we are establishing a reputation for innovative, lowenergy buildings that people enjoy using. Major members are Graham Bizley and Robert Prewett. The most impressive project is Newington Green House located in London. The material of this house is based on bricks and timber frame. Especially, the big yellow windows and doors shining in the dawn makes people missing their home. (fig1.26) The stairs is also made of timber. No waste space at all, under the stairs are several book shelfs. (fig1.24) The roof of the house also have a good glass window so that let the sunshine through the roof to the dining room table. (fig1.23) On the other side is the kitchen which have the plenty of shine during the day as well. (fig1.27) Down a few steps is an open-plan room, set very slightly below ground level, comprising the living, kitchen and dining areas. This fantastic space, with walls of white-painted brickwork, is flooded with natural light from the glazed roof. Above the dining table, small internal windows open onto the bedroom and hallway, an intriguing architectural detail that allows the air to circulate, keeping the rooms upstairs warm and the rooms downstairs cool. On first floor there is the master bedroom and bathroom. The next level contains the studio, which has a vast picture window providing views over the street towards Newington Green. On the top floor is a small utility / laundry room, nicknamed the potting shed, with shelves for garden storage, a workspace for potting up new seedlings, and a pulley washing-line system. Also an “unofficial” roof terrace, which is planted with a variety of flowers.

Regents Park Open Air Theatre London Completed: 2008 Build cost:: £585,000

Regents Park Open Air Theatre is really famous theatre in the world with a history nearly 100 years. It was founded in 1932 by Sydney Carroll and Robert Atkins. The new facilities are engaged with the romantic atmosphere, for example the female lavatory’s ceiling is been paint in pink, and decorated with yellow lights. Two mirrors in the corner thought not facing each other, still have the reflection of the outside beautiful scence. (fig1.29) Especially, during the night, several little yellow light bulbs neither makes the environment too much shining or too dark. The walls reflect gental lights to creat a romantic place. Looking from the outside, the greens connected with each other and been well organised. Several little flowers at one side of the entrance.

Hidden amongst the trees in Regent’s Park, the Open Air Theatre is a much loved London institution where stories are told as the sun sets on summer evenings. The New Shakespeare Company required several new facilities including a bar / rehearsal area to support an existing studio space and new toilets for the amphitheatre. The new facilities are conceived as an extension of the romantic landscape of the theatre, magical grottos entered through new holes in the existing hedges. Simple materials like softwood, plywood and resin, assembled in a carefully controlled way, are made luminous by hidden lighting lifting the activities out of the realm of the purely prosaic. The construction was designed to impact lightly on the environment and the toilets are supplied by water from a borehole in Regent’s Park, reducing the reliance on mains supply. Fairy lights twinkle in the hedges, an ethereal setting for A Mid-Summer Night’s Dream. Following the English tradition of park buildings the external elevations are clad with green stained softwood boards and concealed by planting. At the entrances the warmer materials of the interior are revealed. The cubicles themselves are made from spruce panels, opening directly onto the landscape. Internally, the walls are clad with phenolic-faced birch plywood or laminated spruce panels. The female washing area has a glossy pink painted ceiling and its own window out into the park, a boudoir amongst the trees. Using lighting and sim ple materials in unusual ways the new interventions extend the magical atmosphere of the performance into areas of the Theatre which are usually more functional.

Fig 20The female lavatory

However, the inside is looks much modern, on the other hand, the outside is a bit old but connected well with the modern things, so that the whole project have very strong conflict. Try to control the number of green become the key of this site. In the summer, how to pretend the bugs, keep them out the architecture, a limit line should be necessary. The matreials been used is simple, like softwood, plywood and resin, assembled in a carefully controlled way. The strcuture is simple as well only one store with no complex size. Sometimes, the decoration looks simple makes people feel less pressure and more relax. This does not means simplify everything. The details should be enough, but they are hinden in the wall or behind the board. When people want to use them then they will find the details of the designer special thinking. When people do not need to use the functions, they should be just stay in the small room waiting for someone open them.

Light is a big part of architecture as well, if there is no light, there will be no shadow, even can not see anything. Sometimes, just a little light can impact the envrionment a lot, (fig1.32) left bulbs isolate the outside and seprate the inside, people can feel less anxious and keep the aftaid out the space.

Chasing Sputnik is a project that brings together three established artists: Roy Brown, Julia Flatman and Tom Hall and works in partnership with Arts University at Bournemouth, Quay Arts and the National Trust to respond to the former rocket testing facility of the British Space Programme at High Down on the Isle of Wight. There are three phases to the project; An exploratory phase we call Launch Pad, a discussion exploring how art may help to interpret less glamorous historic sites and to see if we can begin to develop a new visual language to describe and promote them. An exhibition phase where the artist will produce a significant body of new works to articulate ideas developed in the discussion and to engage with new audiences in the history of the site. Finally a dissemination phase will bring the project to a wider audience who may not be used to using art as an interpretive tool. Together it is searching for new ways to discuss and unravel new narrative ways to understand 20th century heritage sites, which have less visual presence.

7th November, 2013, University threater 2 Chasing Sputnik is a one year project made by three artists. The material mainly are recycle things with no painting colour on it. So, the project may looks a little bit unreal and quite funny, like the small handcraft been scaled.

The artists plan to use the High Down site as a research opportunity to find a visual lexicon that turns the austere concrete remnants into a new discussion about Britain’s desire to be a part of space exploration. The artists are seeking to develop a series of direct responses to widen public engagement with the site, examining the ways in which the British experience of space has been portrayed and how it has seeped into public consciousness through design, literature and entertainment.

They also have the bonus which is the special made sounds effects. The music makes the place more meaningful and the atmosphere seems like 20th century, people in the room can really touch feel that moment before the rocket sent to sky. For example, the stimulate counting down number sounds effect with noisy background, etc. People can even smell the different air and tracing the details on the walls, image the picture of the sputearth flying around the space.

The title Chasing Sputnik is taken from a British scientist’s youthful imaginings that he could chase down a visible Russian satellite by running down the street to get a closer look. This demonstrates the structure and manner of the research to be undertaken. It will be a multi-disciplined playful response including sculptures, light works and installations. We take the position that the optimism of early national space dreams created a sense of excitement about our future. The project intends to re-ignite their boyish dreams of interstellar travel and the idea of one day going to the stars.

All in all, this is a very successful project. A unique thought lead to artist made effords to achieved this quite big event. Therefore, normal people can learn and know more about the Sputearth and the the National Trust knowledge. In other words, residents also have a chance to engaged with high technic things. So that less worried and more trust can be established.

Fig 25 Chasing Sputnik project

On the other hand, the detail of it is very nice and well organised. Not only the rocket body, but also the control machines and the other relevent things, even every small button is been carefully thought by them. Tom hall had done many research, even connected to the national trust for some information. The project respond to ideas thrown up by the former rocket testing facility of the British Space Programme at West High Down. A very old building and the walls are already turned into black, virus can be seen on the ceiling as well. The whole environment is very successful, the building looks really old and a little bit terrified.

Information Body Architecture Movement – Thinkers and Makers, Movers and Shakers The Leaning, Leading Line is a reflection on a quarter of a century of collaboration between Caroline Salem, choreographer and Ed Frith, architect, it unearths five strands which have run through their work; Horizon, Ground, Within, Climb, Height. Reflection. These are propelling us further into the psycho-physical poetry of the thinking, moving body within designed structures. Their work began for theatre, has travelled far and wide, and now feels the strong draw to return to the theatre. A leaning, leading line In parallel with these threads Caroline is passionate about shaking hierarchies in order to create a movement language that is unique to the world of that particular work; the fragment is identifiable as part of the whole. The source of this is the individuality of the performer. The unlocking of the individual, ‘duende’, is now at the heart of the making process; a process that originates in and drives through and beyond the torso. A unique loci deep in the torso is imagined and a line is conjured using the ideo kinaesthetic imagination of the dancer. This trajectory, which shifts in energetic presence, can be used as a way to open up movement language and choreographic structures. This line is never horizontal or vertical, and its source is always off centre; it is always leaning. Seeking distinctive yet inseparably connected individual strands has led to a favourite Lorca Poem, “Fabula y reuda de los tre amigos”; Lorca, Bunuel and Dali, it maybe, but more significant is its form, rhythm, texture and physicality. Lorca’s language conjures so much, so precisely, with so little. The collaborative team also includes the composer Peter Salem. Initial notes for score: Violin , bass and voice. Initial notes for design: Stairs, rotating, opening to sky and ground.

personal experience Friday 18th Octobor, 2013 UH001 Lucy, Jorge Orta The most impressive part of the Body Architecture Movement is the 7:54 video, which is been well organised and show the relevent between architecture and body movement. This is not the only body architecture movement can be searched online. However, their work focuses around the common ground of ‘movement’ and ‘the line’. Ways of seeing, sensing and imagining place change at its heart.

They spend lots of money and time to collection these extradinary beautiful photos around the world just to reflection in the end of 20th century and the beginning of the 21th century about 25years in all. Hundreds of tavelled far and wide, each coner of the earth, the purpose is to feel the nature and the architecture. That still is todays topic of human being. How to connect the environment with normal life without breaking the balance. We wish to enable a digital computer to translate movement notation into an animated display of human figures performing the represented movements. To this end we have postulated a model of the human body as a network of special-purpose processors— one processor situated at each joint of the body— each with an instruction set designed around a set of &ldqo;primitive movement concepts.&rdqo; The translation process may then be divided into two stages: a compilation stage in which the movement notation gets translated into programs for these special-purpose processors, and a simulation stage which simulates the behavior of these processors as they interpret their respective programs. We shall describe the instruction set for these processors and discuss how these instructions may be interpreted. For example the booklet about Locating and Rotating London (Fig 1.42) just like a game, people can use photoshop to rotate or changing it by mood or even random. Then, everyone will get different effects depend on the moment, and no one can draw the same picture when they do it by hand. Fig 33 Locating and Rotating London Booklet

New work: sculpture, drawings and models created by Lucy + Jorge Orta during their research on new organic and modular architecture as a result of their collaborations with the Greenham partnership and other communities across Europe.

artSOUTH : collaborations The exhibition shows on 7 September to 1 December 2013 in Winchester / Southampton / Portsmouth / New Forest / Romsey / Bournemouth totally 12 weeks of free exhibitions and performances across central south England.

“Potential Architecture” explores artists Lucy + Jorge Orta’s recent architectural endeavours that derive from their fascination with cell biology and the process of differentiation. Through drawings and sculpture, the artists conceptualize the communication process the human cell undertakes from its embryonic state, and the infinite transformations that lead to defined structural organisms. This new body of work draws from Lucy + Jorge Orta’s artistic practice, grounded in the universal concerns of community, shelter, migration and sustainable development. Potential Architecture is a powerful rejoinder to the arbitrary boundaries that define art, architecture and design. Lucy Orta’s practice from the early 1990s began with a series of artworks that combined architecture, fashion and social intervention. Produced in collaboration with her partner, these works took the form of temporary refuges, prototype survival clothing, portable shelters, and tent villages for symbolic emergency situations exploring notions of identity, architecture and communication through workshops and community based actions. In 2002, Orta began working on a series entitled Totipotent Architecture marking a shift away from the body and the transient shelters, to more permanent proposals for sculpture and interventions in urban space. Totipotent Architecture is a reflection on the process of differentiation the human cell undertakes from its embryonic state, to a defined cell structural organism, the wonderful building block of our body.

Orta looks really pure and some of the works are transparent glass in black and orange. The balls like accommodation of water in the black frame to help them keep steadily. The works are fine art with no dirty point, no one can tell the price of the object. The title of them is abstract as well, even the ordinary children with no art training will like the size shape and colour, everyone have the will to touch it, want to feel the temperature and the soft surface.

Another study is relevent of the textile. She’s sculptural work investigates the boundaries between the body and architecture. Fig 1.46 shows the example cover for refugees or hiking people etc. It can protect homeless people from cold and rain. Moreover, the coat with similar size can join as a group, such as four person or six person connect their clothes together to make a bigger camp. So that people can feel less cold and more warm even spend their night on the street. Fig 36 The produce of the products are made in China, then transport to German and let 50 people wear the same greyclothes with black words on it, connected them with each other to become a big net. Which means there should be links between everyone.

Sometimes the camps are quite big. The transport might be a problem, so to co-operate with militaries and hospitals is a good strategy to solve this hard problem. Finally, just to think more and develop the details.

The Report of the Brundtland Commission, Our Common Future, was published by Oxford University Press in 1987. The report deals with sustainable development and the change of politics needed for achieving that. The definition of this term in the report is often cited: “Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”. It contains within it two key concepts: the concept of ‘needs’, in particular the essential needs of the world’s poor, to which overriding priority should be given; and the idea of limitations imposed by the state of technology and social organization on the environment’s ability to meet present and future needs.” There are 43 million tonnes consumed in British per year. Contribution from life cycle phases Design, distribution, construction, refurbishment & demolition <3% Manufacture of building materials 8% - 30% Operational (in use) ≥ 70%. Emissions from operational phase will fall as: Buildings become better insulated Electricity generation becomes decarbonised.

These graphics on the right side shows relevent things about using timber in England. There is a very long history that timber has been used in human normal life since human know how to use the tools. TRADA established to counter steel industry campaigns against wood since 1934. Today, people can not live without timber. It plays an important part in daily life.

There are many advantages about the greens which is previous wood and timber. Lock up carbon and help reduce climate change, provide generate oxygen to keep animals alive and even regulate weather systems and recycle nutrients, also greens can sustain biodiversity and provide a diverse range of products other than wood (e.g. medicines, cocoa, rubber) provide wood for fuel and construction and so on. There are only a few disadvantages like when timber is over use and easy to make fire. However, timber is a re-use, recycling and energy source. Every country, all around the world treat timber as an important and irreplaceable natural souce. Not only in architecture area, but also in many others specific area. It is a gift from God that could makes life better. Thus, the answer should be yes, timber is a sustainable resourse if we can use it cautious and correctly.

Istanbul Seaport Client: Renaissance Construction Date: August 2011 A new port rises from the Sea of Marmara.

Squintopera UH001 29th NOV,2013 Istanbul Seaport design is one of the world best design by lots of famous architects and designer around the world. It is located at 47N 28E next to the Sea of Marmara. Although the whole constuction area is only 652,000 square meters, not extremly big. It will become an important part of the world tourism place.

Renaissance Construction appointed us to create all communications materials - from brand and print to CGIs and animation - for their flagship project, Istanbul Seaport. The film showcases the proposed new development through the eyes of a local fisherman. He encounters an ocean liner en route to the new port, which grows out of the water before his very eyes. Once it has emerged he steps ashore to sample what this new land has to offer. About Squint/Opera Squint/Opera offers full design and digital production services across moving and still image, interactive design and editorial content for all marketing collateral. They have built their reputation on their ability to communicate complex and compelling narratives and construct believable spaces, with a strong sense of atmosphere and occasion. Squint Opera have studios in London, Istanbul, Melbourne, Abu Dhabi and Sao Paulo. The Istanbul Seaport film was Directed by Nick Taylor of Squint Opera and shows a local fisherman encountering an ocean liner en route to the new seaport development which grows out of the water before his eyes, before he samples what this new island has to offer. Overlooking the Sea of Marmara just south of the Bosphorus Strait, Istanbul Seaport is an ambitious mixed-use project that will offer a new template for modern life on the European side of Turkey’s ancient capital. Nearly half of the 435,000-square-meter development will be constructed on an in-fill site of reclaimed waterfront, and will include a state-of-theart cruise ship terminal, yacht harbor and pleasure boat marina. Farther ashore, it will feature an exhibition hall, conference center, five-star hotel, retail center and boardwalk, park, office space, residential condos and lofts – and a convenient tram linking all of them together.

The urbanist of Istanbul Seaport is based on the sea to fill a new area. The old town can keep the original shape and form. It will be totally different in the seaport. The words that can describe it is luxury and modern. The ports can park up to five tourist ferries, and hundreds of boats. On the 440,000 land area, half of it will be retail and entertainment area, 140 thousand square meters of office zones, there are also plenty space for exhibition center, apart lofts hotels marina and other facilities. There are also many questions about how to merge old and new together. Because the development is adjacent to the fifth century Theodesian Wall and in front of existing residential neighborhoods, the design brief required a sensitivity to both Istanbul’s historic past and its contemporary culture. The thoroughfare between the airport and downtown will be rerouted to provide a plaza at the terminus of the historic fortifications, and low-rise buildings will meet strict height limits to preserve the wall’s dominance and allow views of the sea for all. And to merge old and new, encourage social activity and ensure easy accessibility, the spaces between buildings will provide pedestrianfriendly streets and walkways as well as welcoming outdoor plazas and courtyards. (Istanbul, 2013)

However, everyone’s target is the same- better city better life. Sometime architects should take part in other area and cooperate with people who is expert in different areas such as film production, so that the plan will not be only a piece of architectual paper. It can be vivid on the screen.

This PDP was done in ten weeks time. It is a continuous cycle of self reflection and action, the purpose of PDP is to encourage students to learn to develop themselves and plan for the future by becoming more self-aware. PDP can change the way people approach their studies, make choices in both their academic and personal life and achieve their goals. So people can be more cautious to do other works and more patient and careful to do works. When people engaging in PDP may help them to be more motivated, know how to learn the things by themselves and take greater interest in their development, focus on how can make things better.

CONCLUSION 6.0

Part1 Conclusion

There are some other benefits to do this PDP. Such as people can improve their English writing and typing. Develop aesthetic by how to chose the picture and even the control ability about the softwares for example indesign. It teaches people how to study by becoming more self-aware.

-Richard Rogers The beauty and joy of the beach should be open to any kind of activity and accessible for everyone. That’s what The Great Wall of Bournemouth aims to do: to bring people together in a carefully redesigned environment that suits the needs of many. People can now enjoy and experience the Bournemouth beach like never before by undertaking a variety of activities in a space fit to accommodate them. The ground becomes an arena of interaction, giving the people the possibility to explore freely from any level. The wave-like pattern of the terrain mimics the never-ending waves that crash on the shoreline. Such shapes inspired the canopies that provide shelter from the sun and rain. The space underneath the canopies becomes a pathway for people and leaves room for other activities to evolve and businesses to flourish.

Theory of the dérive (Guy Debord, 1956)

The FAT project is a collaborativc project. Including Fashion, Architecture and Textiles students together to do something interesting and learn from each others major knowledge. Although it is a very short project, just four days all together, still gain a lot of things in it. The first day is Monday, group five get together have 9 people in total. Two fashion students, four architecture students and three textile students. The first thing is find a place, remember each other’s name and make a plan for the rest of days. Then use a A3 paper to do some brainstorm. Day two morning all member went to Poole to find something related to the title lightweight. From dolphin center along the high street and then towards Poole Quay. Lots of sculpture have been found in Poole Quay, so fashion group show there fabrics and feather, architecture hold the staff and textile take pictures and videos. The Poole museum is a really nice place to visit but not much things can be done in the museum. Then, the route is along the beach and find objects such as seashell and sticks to find out whether these objects could be useful to make something. The third day morning people get together in Bournemouth seafront, there are not many people and from Bournemouth pier went to Poole side to see whether some interesting things could be found. The wind is so strong and weave is quite big as well. Fortunately, there is something nice to make a short video. In the afternoon, back to the university and start to figure out what to present in the Friday. The basic structure was been made and everyone makes their efforts on it. Some people working on computer like Photoshop and power point. Some are drawing the pictures and some are making the video stick pictures and clips. Day four is the last day because the presentation is on Friday morning. So everyone is a little bit nervous. Fortunately, the major things have been done in the afternoon. Moreover, test the studio computer to see whether it works or not. Finally, everyone knows what to say in the presentation and of course the time management. Everyone gain a lot during this week, though it is only a week long group project. People know how to work with other subjects mates and that is the key concept of this project.

WHAT IS IT? This is a collaborative project based within the site of the marina/quayside district of Poole. You will work creatively with members from Fashion, Architecture and Textiles [FAT] to craft, discover, understand and present your work as a group. This short study is about collaboration; therefore you will learn some of the methods of working with people from different disciplines that will occur in your future professional careers. WHY? You will bring your group ideas together where you learn from each other to craft a cohesive piece of work that relates to the site by aligning, expanding and developing culture, skills and other perspectives from your course with those from another course. HOW? You will be assigned into one of ten groups. Two groups will separately look at the same word as a starting point to discover what can be created in an intense, short period of time to be presented as a group at the end of the project. This new work is to be designed in order to add enrichment to your normal units within your respective degree studies and to form new creative relationships between people from different courses.

personal experience ‘A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.’ - Antoine de Saint-Expury This quote highlights an issue often overlooked by architects and designers. Lightweight design is about more than just being physically light or small. It implies doing more with less and being conscience of the materials we use. As well as the physical properties Fig.6 The fabric and wind associated with lightweight design, lightweight can also refer to the visual impact of a building on its surroundings or its effect on the environment. In this respect lightweight architecture could be interpreted as being subtle or sustainable as well as being materially efficient and lightweight. We brainstormed words and issues that relate to the word ‘lightweight’ within architecture. Some of the key terms we came up with included structure, frame and cladding. We also thought of existing precedents such as Shigeru Ban’s paper tube architecture and the Eden project, which weighs less than the air inside it. From this we tried to focus on elements that linked all our courses, namely structure and fabric.

ARC 550 Dialogues with urban context

The performance in learning outcome one for ARC 550. The brief contains 23 pages, mainly colour in blue. Except for the mainly things, such as cover sheet, content, image list, introduction, conclusion and bibliography.

The brief talked about the Poole history with some images and sketches next to the words. The sketches are a part of the sketch book that was been done before. Also, some searches about wine making progress because the project is a micro vintner. However, the images of wine making progress could be improved, for example drawing by hand and be more complex if it is necessary. The wine making tools images were download from internet, there are several choice of the machine. Because it is just a brief, so just take one page to introduce of the tools is fine. The precedent study about storage are some nice pictures from all over the world. However, not only interior architecture but also the outside structure should be included in the precedents, the major thing is quality instead of quantity. Another important thing is history and relevant events research. Then, the development in design report mainly are some maps about Poole, models of the micro vintner and some computer programme which made by CAD, Photoshop and sketch up models. The time management is not good enough. The solid model need to have more time to make and montage can be more detail and vivid. However, all of these things takes ages to do. so the time management is really necessary. The model which is pretty more important should spend more times on it.

ARC 550 Dialogues with urban context

The performance in learning outcome two for ARC 550. The LO2 is about Lord Wimborne in auto CAD, a technical drawing and the sketch book.

Learning Outcome two Auto CAD A1 print Technical drawing A1 Tracing paper 120 pages Sketch book

The Whole Lord Wimborne south elevation is the hardest work in learning outcome two. It can never get finished, because there are always more details to draw. The more time people spend on it, the more details people get. It is impossible to get perfect in the elevation. Once stuck in the auto CAD, it will be hard to wake up. On the other side, it is also help people to recognise old building, the original brilliant thought of the architect, why they design the windows or columns like this and how to make it real.

Fig.17 The technology drawing

Fig.18 The sketches of details

Fig.19 The sketches of AUB

Through the sketches, it is not just a piece of paper. Maybe someone think it is nothing but just a house or building or stones something stand on the ground, provide shelter for the human being. However, it is more meaningful than that. It must be meaningful to some families. Some little children may hide little toys in somewhere in the wall, even a dirty dot on the wall have its own story to tell.

LO5

The detail drawing on tracing paper is similar. It is always have room to improve, same concept, just put more efforts on it. Finally, the whole project will suddenly come out, looks surreal but nice and professional. It is also a very good opportunity to make friends with English architecture, not like website, people can engage with it, observe the details on it, touch it, hear it, even smell it. Also, know the story of the building, the reason why it has been built and when been refurbish and so on.

Thus, drawing sketches of the houses is not just simple like camera, the more realistic, the more marks can be receive. The reason why that masters drawing is expensive is the spectacular time in spectacular place with spectacular people have spectacular story. It cannot be copied because the artist would not have that mood again. The sketches keeps author’s story. That is the reason to keep drawing every day.

The two thousand word essay is the only academic writing work among the whole term. It can be the hardest thing to finish, also it can be a easy thing as well. It depend on how much effort have been put in and the English level people got. Some people are good at academic writing, some are not. It might be easy for English speaking people, because they have more beautiful word and grammar to put in essay.

The last learning outcome is PDP which stands for personal development planning. It has no limited pages, so put as many pages as needed. Each Friday got a lecture and there are many exhibitions and plenty of seminars to write. There are no perfect in works, each week accumulated something, then at the end of the term

Learning Outcome four

Learning outcome four is group work and essay. About the group work, as long as everyone know what they should do and how to do it, give their own contribute, then plus together to make the final project, so everyone is important and none of the part can be separate. There are always one leader in the group and then the rest of people just give their opinions whether will be accept or not. The whole group project quality is depend on the weakness person, just like the short slab of the vat decide the how much water that the vat can be filled.

The Bournemouth Seafront have two version. The first one is two A2 sheets which is scale on the right. The first page shows the site from Bournemouth pier to Boscom pier 2.3 kilometres long is been shown in colour green. Then, several sketches shows the initial idea. Also, precedent study from all over the world at the bottom of the page. The second A2 sheet including some words discuss what to put between two piers, a section shows how to build a road next to the cliff and beach hut and the sea wall which is a stairs to let people climb and seat. The plan is not properly, the parking space in the middle car is facing the wrong direction, though it is just a original idea. Could be improved by better images and sketches. The perspective sketches and models are always important than plan and section. Let people immediately know what it will be looks like in the future.

Seawall 2 Information

“The only way forward, if we are going to improve the quality of the environment, is to get everybody involved” -Richard Rogers The beauty and joy of the beach should be open to any kind of activity and accessible for everyone. That’s what The Great Wall of Bournemouth aims to do: to bring people together in a carefully redesigned environment that suits the needs of many. People can now enjoy and experience the Bournemouth beach like never before by undertaking a variety of activities in a space fit to accommodate them. The ground becomes an arena of interaction, giving the people the possibility to explore freely from any level. The wave-like pattern of the terrain mimics the never-ending waves that crash on the shoreline. Such shapes inspired the canopies that provide shelter from the sun and rain. The space underneath the canopies becomes a pathway for people and leaves room for other activities to evolve and businesses to flourish.

-Richard Rogers

PERSONAL EXPERIENCE The second version on the right hand is made by five people in less than two days time. There are some information about brain storming at first below, many good ideas have been developed since that time, so the first day is just for some sketches and to choose one of the these idea which believed as the best- The great wall of Bournemouth. It is a quite simple idea. Next to the cliff is a timber canopy that allowed people to sit on it and even climb on it. Under the canopy are shops and beach huts. The sea wall is not only a wall against the sea level raising, but also is a place for people get together as a meeting area. Moreover, the curve stages painted with different colours and designed in different wideness. So that local concerts can have a stage to perform and it is also a place for children to treat it as a playground and enjoy it. During the night, LED lights are in the stages, therefore a shining blue or yellow line appear on the beach, it is a good oppotunity to enjoy seafront in 24 hours as a wonderful romantic place.

INITIAL IDEAS

Beach hut

Beach hut

National Trust

The beaches at Studland are owned and managed by the National Trust. They are a site of very important natural value and are protected through international, European and national designations. They are home to all 6 of the UK’s reptile species, for example, sand lizards. They are also home to wildlife such as otters, heath tiger beetles, large marsh grasshopper, spiny and short-snouted sea horses, and marsh club moss. Studland can attract 1 million tourists each year. Beach huts form one of the many diverse recreational uses of the beach and their income along with other enterprise outlets is an important source of revenue for the National Trust in Purbeck. Today there are 279 beach huts at Studland, some are owned and rented to holiday makers by the National Trust and others are privately owned. Due to the shrinking of the beach through erosion the beach huts have had to be moved backwards three times, to safeguard them from autumn and winter storms – hard to believe in the nice sunny weather. There is now nowhere else to move them due to the strict protection of the area. In addition, it is projected that climate change will result in more frequent storms and sea level rise will result in 40-60 extra centimetres of still water by 2060. If these two factors are combined Studland will see more destructive storms and a further reduction in the size of the beach. In order to continue to attract the tourists and maintain the presence of the beach huts at Studland the National Trust is recognises that it has to adapt to future changes.

Information Directed by François Truffaut Produced by François Truffaut Written by François Truffaut Music by Jean Constantin Cinematography Henri Decaë Editing by Marie-Josèphe Yoyotte Studio Les Films du Carrosse Distributed by Cocinor Release dates 4 May 1959 (France) 16 November 1959 (USA) Running time 99 minutes Country France Language French The 400 Blows (French: Les quatre cents coups) is a 1959 French drama film directed by François Truffaut and starring Jean-Pierre Léaud, Albert Rémy, and Claire Maurier. One of the defining films of the French New Wave, it displays many of the characteristic traits of the movement. Written by Truffaut and Marcel Moussy, the film is about Antoine Doinel, a misunderstood adolescent in Paris who is thought by his parents and teachers to be a troublemaker. Filmed on location in Paris and Honfleur, The 400 Blows received numerous awards and nominations, including the Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Director, the OCIC Award, and a Palme d’Or nomination in 1959. The film was also nominated for an Academy Award for Best Writing in 1960. The 400 Blows had a total of 3,642,981 admissions in France, making it Truffaut’s most successful film in his home country. The unforgettable debut feature by François Truffaut is a wrenchingly personal coming-of-age story. With the utmost sensitivity, The 400 Blows dramatizes the trials of Truffaut’s own difficult childhood. The film marks its maker’s official transition from influential critic to one of Europe’s most brilliant auteurs and is considered the first true work of the French New Wave.

The 400 Blows

The 400 Blows personal experience Wed 29 January at 6pm in Film Studio 2 It is an excellent French film with English subtitle. Though the theme is about 1960s children life in France, there are something relevant to architecture as well. The black and white film shows the middle 20th century normal people’s life style. A big change of what people worn between that time and now, either of the architecture style. The whole film was shot in Paris. The Eiffel tower was been built in 1887. So the film have several scene about it. Although the other buildings facade is quite similar compared with nowadays. The interior architecture is almost totally different, From the images on the right hand, the inside of the school is quite boring, not only the furniture such as desks and even the door is quite fragile. Same as normal people’s house. Old cupboard, tiny rooms and even the little boy have to sleep in the entrance next to the front door. The bed takes almost half of the space of that room and if someone come to his house they have to stride over the bed. The boy live in a flat with his parents, every day he have to sweep the rubbish to the bin at the ground floor, there is no lift available, the stairs are quite narrow and the bin is just next to the mouldy wall. Really bad condition. It is impossible to find a place like this in France any more. Most of the houses are keeping the outside, because it is a kind of way to protect history. The same as London. Apart of the architecture, it is a meaningful film which tells a true story at that time 1960s in France. It still a good film for today and forever.

A taste of honey

A taste of Honey Information Directed by Tony Richardson Produced by Tony Richardson Screenplay by Shelagh Delaney Tony Richardson Based on A Taste of Honey by Shelagh Delaney Starring Dora Bryan Music by John Addison Cinematography Walter Lassally Editing by Antony Gibbs Studio Woodfall Film Productions Distributed by British Lion Films Release dates September 1961 Running time 100 minutes Country United Kingdom Language English Budget £120,000 A Taste of Honey is a 1961 British film adaptation of the play of the same name by Shelagh Delaney. Delaney adapted the screenplay herself, aided by director Tony Richardson, who had previously directed the first production of the play. It is an exemplar of a gritty genre of British film that has come to be called kitchen sink realism. A key movie in the British New Wave that followed the groundbreaking documentary “free cinema” movement and the explosion of working class fiction and theatre of the 1950’s - a timelessly poignant study of both vulnerable youth and a social order that’s not as bygone as some would have us believe. Storyline: Black and white, gay and straight, mothers and daughters, class, and coming of age. Jo is working class, in her teens, living with her drunk and libidinous mother in northern England. When mom marries impulsively, Jo is out on the streets; she and Geoffrey, a gay co worker who’s adrift himself, find a room together. Then Jo finds herself pregnant after a one night stand with Jimmy, a Black sailor. Geoffrey takes over the preparations for the baby’s birth, and becomes, in effect, the child’s father. The three of them seem to have things sorted out when Jo’s mother reappears on the scene, assertive and domineering.

personal experience Wed 15 January at 6pm in Film Studio 2 It is a traditional British film about a love story in 1960s, almost the same time with The 400 blows. It is hard to tell which film is better. The black and white films at that age is quite similar, not only the scene and some methods, but also the plot and actors expression. The architecture style in that time for ordinary residents are quite similar with French. Seldom cars can be seen on the street. Children do not care about dirty very much, play on the gravel ground and around abandoned old houses. The interior decoration is quite poor, the kitchen living room and bedroom are together, the only separate thing is a curtain between bed and other stuff.

Fig.27 The ARC 550 PDP

On the other hand, life is quite simple. It is easy to find a job even without a diploma. People are happy with their lives. They do not have much things to learn and works are less stressful. More time can spend on hiking and relax. It is only 50 years ago, but two generation is already past. People born, grow up and getting older. So, what is the most important thing for human life, everyone can tell the different answers. However, no one is able to get back to their childhood again when they grow up. Enjoy the moment, learn from the past, step by step and finally the dream will come true, as long as there is a dream and a way.

Information Date: 21 January 2014 Location: Royal Academy, London Exhibition: Sensing spaces Transforming the Main Galleries, Sensing Spaces invites visitors to experience immersive environments designed by renowned and emerging architects from around the world. By engaging with structures, textures, sounds, spaces and even scents, visitors will become part of this unique exhibition, which considers the physical and emotive power of architecture from a fresh perspective. About the RA: The Royal Academy of Arts has a unique position in being an independent, privately funded institution led by eminent artists and architects whose purpose is to promote the creation, enjoyment and appreciation of the visual arts through exhibitions, education and debate. Architects: Li Xiaodong (b.1963, China) is Professor of History and Theory at the Tsinghua University School of Architecture and also runs his own small atelier. His work includes the Bridge School, Xiashi, China (2009) which won an Aga Khan Award for Architecture in 2010 and the Liyuan Library, China (2011). Diébédo Francis Kéré (b.1965, Gando, Burkina Faso) studied in Germany starting his Berlin based practice, Kéré Architecture, in 2005. He has built a number of schools and community buildings in Burkina Faso and across Western Africa receiving the Aga Khan Award for Architecture in 2004 for his Primary School in Gando (1999). Álvaro Siza (b.1933, Matosinho, Portugal) has worked internationally but is best known for his buildings in Portugal including the Boa Nova Teahouse (1963), the SAAL Bouça Housing estate (1977) and the Church of Macro de Canaveses (1996). He received the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 1992, considered the highest distinction in architecture.

Royal Academy Trip

Royal Academy Trip personal experience Sensing spaces event including seven architects from different country all around the world. Every architect using their own way to tell the meaning of sensing spaces. Everyone have their own opinion about the arts. However, one of the exhibition done by Chinese architect Li Xiaodong is quite welcome. Many people talk about it. Li Xiaodong creates a labyrinth of twig screens that leads sometimes to claustrophobic dead-ends, but also to an unexpected inner courtyard, amplified by mirrors, which also produce an uneasy selfconsciousness of your own presence in the space. Kengo Kuma offers two differently scented rooms, lightly occupied by structures made of ultra-thin strands of bamboo. It’s a little too like a luxury spa. When people walking in his puzzle, they feel completely lost in this nature space. But no one feel panic, instead just curious what will happen at the end of the space. There are several rooms that allowed people to have a seat and sensing this space, also try to think something. When people followed the puzzle, leading to a open space like garden full of gravel. Then there is an answer. Nowadays, everyone is under press and feel so stressful, because they have no idea what will happen and what is this for, why they should work hard. This is a way to help people take off their pressure and relax, connect to the nature.

Fig.38 Sensing spaces

Regrettably, there are not enough space for the exhibition, if it has been built in the forest like a real massive puzzle. Let people to breath fresh air, smell the brunch and listen to the birds singing and leaves fell down. Then it will be an unbelievable master piece.

Reflect Conclusion

Part2 Conclusion This Personal development planning was done in ten weeks’ time, between 6th Jan, 2014 and 14th March, 2014. Including two key parts, first is critical reflection about ARC550. The second part can be divided into four small parts which are about Friday 12 noon lecture, some competitions about beach huts and Bournemouth seafront, the trips to London Royal Academy and other places, the Wednesday evening old films. During this ten weeks intensive working, there are more things should be put into the PDP, compared with last term Arc 550, there are more time spent on it.

ARC 551 Dialogues with use and form

The performance in learning outcome one for ARC 551. The Site informed narrative contains 23 pages, precedent typology analysis contains 13 pages, mainly colour in black and white.

Indicative Medium-Scale Music School Programme The music school is specifically a medium scale building with multiple floors, but no taller than 25M. Aims: Develop and enhance an ability to use design methodology based on critical reflective practice to propose architectural solutions. Learning Outcome one Ability to use research, analysis and evaluation to prepare and present a critically informed architectural proposition responding to an architectural brief and urban context. LO1 Report1:Site informed Narrative. A3 landscape LO1 Report2:Precedent Typology Analyses.A3 Final architectural proposition. Present comprehensive well formatted drawings at multiple scales, with additional models, including: Architectural scales: 1:1250/1:500/1:200/1:100/1:50 /1:10/1:5/1:2 Plus documentation of design process, drawings and models of context and proposals. *Site and architectural precedent analysis. *Minimum: At least one A5/A4 sketchbook of architectural drawings. *Photographic evidence of site analysis at different times of day to indicate comprehensive urban activities of site. *Timeline of design development.

The site informed narrative is the key report in this unit. Compared with ARC 550, this unit is much harder. In this report, many new ideas have been shown, such as the site analysis including sun path and population analysis. Moreover, some other methods for example how to show the movement people and stationary people, this helps the report become more colourful and more complex due to including some details. The building become vividly by these methods, people allowed to image what does the building looks like by sketch up model. By testing the model, architect can realize which part should be set in where. On the other hand, there are still some mistakes in this report. Such as due to the plan is always changing, so some of the images were done quite early and looks a little different with others. Better time management is need. So that improves the quality of the images to display in a more professional way instead of amateur look.

Almost all the images are based on the auto CAD plan. The performance in learning outcome two for ARC 552. The LO2 is about the A1 sheets, architecture models and the sketch book.

Indicative Medium-Scale Music School Programme The music school is specifically a medium scale building with multiple floors, but no taller than 25M. Aims: Develop an understanding of a variety of representational media to communicate an architectural proposition. Learning Outcome two Knowledge and understanding of appropriate representational skills, from architecture, the fine arts and other disciplines in the preparation and presentation of an architectural proposition. LO2: Accumulated communication and final presentation of process and proposition demonstrating a diverse range of techniques and skills including: *Final review and preliminary reviews presentations *A1 sheets (1/2/3) *Architectural scaled models. 1:500/1:200 *Fully completed ARC551 architectural sketchbook *3D animation/render of proposition (i.e. Rhino/ Sketchup)

The architecture models including a mass model which is scaled 1:500 to show the site and a detail model scaled 1:200 which is designed in auto CAD and use laser cut finally stick together. Then, some LED bike lights inside of the model. This model spent about 20 hours on the CAD drawing. However, another similar model has been made as a improve version, it is still have some mistakes have not been corrected, such as the wall is still quite thick for this model and stairs are quite difficult to make so on.

Another part of this learning outcome is the sketch book. The advantage of this sketch book is it has been fully complete this term, though not very good quality. Most sketches are painted by black pen, some been coloured, most of them are black and white. About the time some of the sketches were spent about a hour to draw, some were only 3 minutes work. About the computer models. It is designed on auto CAD first, and then put it into sketchup to make the walls and furniture. The next part is build different floors and landscape environment. The pictures could be more beautiful if it is render by 3d max or rhino or Lumion. However, this is one of the most difficult parts, because people have to spend more time on learning another software without use before. Hopefully, next term the project can be better rendered by Lumion.

Indicative Medium-Scale Music School Programme The music school is specifically a medium scale building with multiple floors, but no taller than 25M. Aims: Enhance knowledge of building technology, inclusive of structures, materials and environmentak control issues, for the realisation of an architectural proposition. Learning Outcome three Knowledge of strategic, regulatory and detailing issues of building structure, construction and envirionmental design factors for human comfort, and hoe these inform an integrated and sustainable architectural design proposition.

A3 Environmental Control documenting research and final proposition: *Heating strategy *Ventilation strategy (passive/active) *Lighting strategy (daylight and active) *Acoustic treatment *Appropriate Building Regulations Compliance schedule.

The Construction and Structures report and the Environmental Control have the same weight in this unit. Compared with ARC 550, this unit has separated the technology report into two reports. Each of them has to have the image list and bibliography. To be honest, this learning outcome is the weakest one in five learning outcomes.

About the Construction and Structures report, some material precedent studies and material design development. On the other hand is structure precedent studies and structure design development. Due to bad time management and lack knowledge about architecture technology. The structure part is quite weak than other parts, supplied by some sketches and products detail. Overview of these two reports is not professional, this is the key part. It should be always convince somebody and let others believe this is the professional design. It has been well organised and tested rather than these pages are just some pictures download from internet and add some text mixed together.

personal experience Learning outcome four is individual contextual study which is essay. The two thousand words essay is mainly focus on children, architecture and playgrounds. The essay critical analysis about the playground history and the importance to children. Some precedent case in Amsterdam designed by Aldo van Eyck and Kic park in Shanghai, also Google office which is relevant learning outcome one the precedent typology study. On the other hand, analysis the playgrounds in Bournemouth and Dalian, compared the similar and different points. The last part is about the music school design; the connection with the topic also links with design reports.

Children Playgrounds Achitecture The ARC 551 essay

Compared with ARC 550, this essay is better in bibliography and more appropriate images. There are more critical analysis in this essay and the key image describe the key concept of this topic. Most of the pictures are black and white, bring the feeling of history and let reader put more effort on the text. Image is the thing that makes the whole essay looks better and assistant to provide vision plan. One of the most important things in essay is try to express own opinion and critically analysis the precedent case. Never say the word such as brilliant, marvellous, perfect. Always avoid same word, also no plagiarism that is means carefully use the quotation and spend more time on image list and bibliography.

personal experience About ARC551 PDP, compared with ARC550 is much better. More things have been put into the PDP. This PDP has been separated into four parts which are the reflect ARC550, the London trip, the Wednesday film evening and two competitions. Level 5 term two is a quite density term. Except for the Friday 12 noon lecture, many competitions show up. This is a very good opportunity to engage with other students and communicate to exchange their idea. Group work is one of the most important key skill should take charge.

However, PDP documentation should also include journals and any of the other staff which can improve one’s ability. It is a record, like a diary of a person, so that allowed people to write down their experience for maybe ten years even forty years later when the author looks back again, he still immediately remember that fantastic moment and also that moment personal feeling.

Trip to London

Info London is the capital city of England and the United Kingdom. It is the most populous region, urban zone and metropolitan area in the United Kingdom. Standing on the River Thames, London has been a major settlement for two millennia, its history going back to its founding by the Romans, who named it Londinium. London’s ancient core, the City of London, largely retains its 1.12-square-mile (2.9 km2) mediaeval boundaries and in 2011 had a resident population of 7,375, making it the smallest city in England. Since at least the 19th century, the term London has also referred to the metropolis developed around this core. The bulk of this conurbation forms the London region and the Greater London administrative area, governed by the Mayor of London and the London Assembly.

Trip to London

Date: 17 March 2014- 25 March 2014 Location: London Days: 8 days Route: Victoria Station- Beckingham Palace- Hyde Park- Oxford Street- Bond Street- Great Portland Street- Regent Park- Kings cross- British LibraryBritish museum- SOHO China town- National Portrait Galllery- National Gallery- West ministerBig Ben- London Eye- London Bridge- Tate ModernMillennium bridge- St Paul Cathedral- Museum of London- University College London...

personal experience During the Easter holiday, London is a quite nice place to visit. Even with nobody, just walking on the street or rent a blue bike. To feel the atmosphere of the busy London. For poor people, it is still a good place to go. Because the museum and galleries are always free. It is easy to spend the whole day in the British museum start a literature journey. Grab some sandwiches downstairs in Cafe when hungry. There are always something new in the corner of the museum silently waiting there to be find. Like the mummy in Egypt room also company by the pyramid models, even there is a video show how to make a mummy. Apart from the exhibition, in the main hall, it is covered by the transparent canopy. Below the canopy is ancient big columns. There is a sketch about the big 12 meters high column.

Information

Another interesting part in London is the accommodation. It is quite fun to stay in a youth hostel. Book appointment on booking.com, leading by the city map and easily find the destination. Not only a cheap way to avoid the night, but also make friends from all over the world. Many people even cannot speak property English. However, they still can find a job, a way to survival in this marvellous city. There are so many things to talk about London. The parks, the Queen, even the bike rent system. Although it is a really busy city, still some people enjoy their afternoon tea in cafe. People chose their own life in London.

Trip to Edinburgh Information Date: 25 March 2014- 28 March 2014 Location: Edinburgh Days: 3 days Route: National Express-Edinburgh coach stationOmni center-Prince road-Edinburgh castle-Scottish Museum-Scottish gallary-Scottish Portrait gallarymegabus-Glasgow... Info Edinburgh, (Scottish Gaelic: Dùn Èideann) is the capital city of Scotland, situated in Lothian on the southern shore of the Firth of Forth. It is the second most populous city in Scotland and the seventh most populous in the United Kingdom.The population in 2012 was 482,640. Edinburgh has been recognised as the capital of Scotland since at least the 15th century, but political power moved south to London after the Union of the Crowns in 1603 and the Union of Parliaments in 1707. After nearly three centuries of unitary government, a measure of self-government returned in the shape of the devolved Scottish Parliament, which officially opened in Edinburgh in 1999. The city is also home to many national institutions such as the National Museum of Scotland, the National Library of Scotland and the Scottish National Gallery. Edinburgh’s relatively buoyant economy, traditionally centred on banking and insurance but now encompassing a wide range of businesses, makes it the biggest financial centre in the UK after London. Many Scottish companies have established their head offices in the city.

personal experience There is a old Chinese saying “Traveling ten thousand miles is better than reading ten thousand books.” Or it can be simply knows as “Man who travels far knows more.” Because books is other peoples’ experience and opinion. It is always different and feel more by oneself to experience. There are always unpredictable things waiting for the traveller. Such as there is a really nice photo shot by an Art University Bournemouth graduate student exhibited in Scottish portrait gallery, it is so surprise to see AUB student master piece here. Suddenly, the proud of being an AUB student fill the whole body. The architecture in Edinburgh is quite different in there, one main effect is there are too many mountains and hills. People like to live on the high point. So the building is always built on the hill and down the hill is nice gardens. Lots of the houses have more than 100 years history, so the architecture become a beautiful history scenarios. On the other hand, there are also some modern buildings such as Omni leisure center just near the bus station which is very modern even looks like shopping center in China. In other words, the modern new buildings looks similar to each other. The Scottish museum is a really good place to visit. It is a nice old museum combined science museum, history & modern museum together. Quite unique from other museums. Chinese vases, animal and plant samples, old phones, even rocket and need for speed stimulate game can be found in this nice museum. All in all, Edinburgh is a place that worth to visit many times.

Trip to Glasgow personal experience

Date: 29 March 2014- 30 March 2014 Location: Glasgow Days: 2 days Route: Glasgow-Glasgow school of art... Info Glasgow (Scots: Glesca; Scottish Gaelic: Glaschu) is the largest city in Scotland, and the 4th largest in the United Kingdom, and, as of the 2011 census, the Scottish city with the highest population density with 3,395 people per square kilometre. It is situated on the River Clyde in the country’s West Central Lowlands. Inhabitants of the city are referred to as Glaswegians. Glasgow grew from a small rural settlement on the River Clyde to become one of the largest seaports in Britain. Expanding from the medieval bishopric and royal burgh, and the later establishment of the University of Glasgow in the 15th century, it became a major centre of the Scottish Enlightenment in the 18th century. From the 18th century the city also grew as one of Great Britain’s main hubs of transatlantic trade with North America and the West Indies. With the onset of the Industrial Revolution, the population and economy of Glasgow and the surrounding region expanded rapidly to become one of the world’s pre-eminent centres of chemicals, textiles and engineering; most notably in the shipbuilding and marine engineering industry, which produced many innovative and famous vessels. Glasgow is known as the “Second City of the British Empire” for much of the Victorian era and Edwardian period. Today it is one of Europe’s top ten financial centresand is home to many of Scotland’s leading businesses.Glasgow is also ranked as the 57th most liveable city in the world.

‘Land use’ is also often used to refer to the distinct land use types in zoning. Zoning is a device of land-use planning used by local governments in most developed countries. The word is derived from the practice of designating permitted uses of land based on mapped zones which separate one set of land uses from another. Zoning may be use-based (regulating the uses to which land may be put, also called functional zoning), or it may regulate building height, lot coverage (density), and similar characteristics, or some combination of these. Similar urban planning methods have dictated the use of various areas for particular purposes in many cities from ancient times.

personal experience

Innovate: Collaborate: Consolidate. 9-11 April 2014.

This project is a collaborative project done by Architecture and Graphic design students. Get together to do something interesting about how to make better images and some regulations of books, learn from each other’s major knowledge.

Symptoms: • Good Architects have a sense of the world and know how to materialise it but can’t always humanise. Good Graphic Designers are able to identify problems and elucidate in the context of society. Process: • Four to Five Architecture students will seek intelligence from a Graphic Design student • The Architecture students will present ARC 551 in detail to the Graphic Design student in their assigned teams. • Through this presentation Graphic Designers will carefully analyse ARC 551 with the Architecture students. • The Graphic Designers will conduct a problem finding process. • A specific Blog per team will be created. • The Architecture Students and the Graphic Designer will create new outputs together. 9-11 April Outcomes: • Through collaboration, a key proposal regarding each Architecture student’s work within assigned teams will be identified. • Present through PowerPoint/PDF/Blog/Film. • All students to have fully documented collaborative process. • Architecture students will view their work in unexpected ways to enhance meaningful communication. • Through dialogues with Architecture Students, the Graphic Design students will test and learn how to provide professional intelligence in problem finding and identifying good outcomes from a different type of creative work than they are normally used to.

Report page 6 after

The innovate collaborate was started on Wednesday, Group 5 including five architecture students which are Haibin Fu, Joshua Evans Hunt, Matthew Green, Lujain Alwesmi and Sylvester Gziut. Unfortunately, Sylvester is absent. So the rest of students lead by Hilda Kortei. In the 9th April afternoon, Hilda Kortei showed her blog. The concept of her design is neat and clear. She said “White space is perfect, you do not have to afraid of blank, just leave it alone. Also, do not put the images or text in the middle that will look stupid.” Sometimes, design is not that hard. It is just to make things looks more beautiful and clear. Complex does not means good, the books should be more readable and let people like to engage with it and want to read more instead of being headache of it. The next few days until 11st were change the view of these reports which have been done by first and second term in level 5. Followed by some regulations and future scenarios. Finally, there are two examples have been shown on the right.

Although, the whole project is not as easy as it was expected. Thoughts become things, there is never has a flawless design, always have room to improve. A little change makes big difference. People always have different ideas and aesthesis. So the graphic designs always have to transform to suit different group of people.

The 400 Blows

Film: Blade Runner personal experience Thurs. 1st May at 6.30pm in University House 001 Before the film, if someone who have not seen it before, they might doubt the quality of the film. Because it has already been shot for 32 years. Compare with now days films, it scene At the beginning of the film, there is a huge pyramid like architecture which is the main office of the company. Looks really modern even now. The film let the audience believe that this is the building in the future. Everything except for the TV screen convinces people that the future will be looks like this. Another future scenarios is the location looks like Chinatown and mixed with Japanese and white people. The street is terribly old and crowded, it is always rain. After take a long lift, the home is dark with few lights and the room is small. People like ants live in the small cellar. Huge screen outside shows the Coca Cola advertisement and animation of Japanese girl smiling. Fire, rain and spaceship light through the roof glass is the most common scene in this film.

The Blade Runner Archirtecture sketch

The most impressive scene is the toy maker’s home which is seat in an old building surround by darkness, the only lift looks old and dirty. Access to the big front door, the room with few lights through the window looks like has been abandoned for a while. The toys that he made is very impressive, all of them have a strange face and make strange noise as if they can their thoughts and pretend to be a toy. All in all, it is a good science fiction film that people can watch again and again.

Dream house personal experience This is a plan for a future house designed by Haibin, It is going to locate at the countryside of the city Dalian, China. The area of the whole plan is 15 meters *60 meters. The house is 15 meters *9 meters and the rest of the area including a garage and a garden with fountain. The basic concept is to build a house for his family his aunt a nice brick house. Two levels high with piano room and fit room inside. But his aunt did not have enough money to build the house as planned. So the plan become his future house and changed many times. It is still developing today to make the plan more green and maximum use the space. Build a house for themselves might be every architects’ dream. Even their dreams come true, they still want bigger and more complex luxury houses. Steps by steps, with the time and money accumulate.

In the first chapter, most of the pages are about 12 noon lectures other people work. Then the second chapter have more entries about films, competitions and trips. The third chapter also improved, including more personal works than other people influence. This is a Chinese year of Snake (2013) and horse (2014). During this period, lots of things happened.
