YOUR BEST MAY EVER: Dear all! As Izaskun and I told you several times during the 2nd TERM, we are extremely exited by the work you have been doing so far, and NOW is time to finish having the best May ever! joining project development, creative approach to design, the highest intellectual ambition and OF COURSE, enjoyment!
A. ABOUT THE GENERAL RECCOMENDATIONS OF THIS TERM. In order to define the context of our future work, we have stablish 4 statements. STATEMENT 1] 3rd TERM IS NOT A MAKING UP PERIOD, IT IS A DESING TERM. TO EVERY STUDENT. May is a month in which two efforts should be combined: – The effort of keeping designing so that not only your proposals are correctly developed but they achieve excellence in some contains. – The effort of choosing effective formats allowing your work to be meaningful for others. We want EVERY STUDENT to keep this in mind. In May any of those efforts is quite inefficient without the other. Donft think is just a question of doing beautiful images from a project that is already done. Donft think is just a question of taking private decisions in private diagrams or drawings. May is the month in which your architecture begins to be not only yours. Therefore formats allowing appropriation are important. Therefore achieving substantial discoveries is necessary. Those who have the temptation of thinking they should not introduce novelties because then they should change everything please get rid of this though. It is much more important to achieve excellence in some points than to make sections and plans being amazingly coherent. SPECIAL NOTE FOR YEAR 4. There is a difference between portfolio and DR. In many cases students simplify their own intentions and hypothesis from first term to ensure they complete the report. IT IS CRUCIAL THAT YOU ALL REFLECT ON YOUR OWN SIMPLIFICATIONS AND INCREASE NOW AMBITION AND INNOVATION. May is not to complete DR is a month to achieve a view of the future: of how you could deeply improve reality with a personal architecture. SPECIAL NOTE FOR YEAR 5. Be very careful when interpreting May as a month for presentation. All your proposals need a further development to achieve excellence in certain points. What is essential is to find points in which this relevance and uniqueness can be achieved, and doing it actually. STATEMENT 2] 3rd TERM DEFINING SUMMER SHOW CONTAINT. The final results (projects and documents) of every UNIT22 members will summarize the accomplished design skills, will give the last push our portfolios require to be consistent, and as well will conform the content of the Summer Show Exhibition. Being conscious about the economical impact the production of this high quality documents might represent, the different kind of media will be sponsored by UNIT22 (see STATEMENT 4). This year, we have done a big effort to obtain the proper funding you all deserve regarding the Summer Show. We have learnt form last year experience that this event is, among many other issues, a WINDOW TO THE WORLD of all the students' work, an opportunity that cannot be waisted. This opportunity is at the
