Exercise 1
The Animate Inanimate
The First Ever Assignment. Aug 30 - Sept 8
Plan, Roof Plan, Elevation and Section.
6
The Water Bottle
This assignment was meant to understand the architectural language of representation of 3D space through 2D means.
A water bottle was chosen for this project, as it displays the simplicity of every day objects and shows a simple motion.

7
The Trajectory.
Animation
The simple animation of the water bottle falling over to its side.

Final Position
The Final Resting Position of the Bottle

Exercise 2
Mapping Space
The Second Assignment Sept 8 - Sept 20
The main objective for this exercise is to introduce the iterative design processes.
This cube was designed with 4x4 grids, and some corners were removed to showcase a smaller cube’s illusion concaving in.

This exercise explores architecture’s outward appearance as a solid or a void. Four different models were first created from simple shapes on paper, then extruded on the paper. The elevation of the model was then taken and extruded into digital models.
