PORTFOLIO
DESIGN IS A JOURNEY OF
DISCOVERIES
SERENA NGUYEN
“ Architecture is not about buildings and the academy’s knowledge, but about a long investigation development and practical experience. In my architectural thinking, a successful architecture strongly creates the sense of delight in idea, form, light, and shadow. Even more, it will become perfect when blended into the colors of nature and man. This portfolio describes what I interesting in my design? And there are three different categories include Design Concept, Culture, and Facade, which are the most attractive points and focus on my architecture design. ”
Architecture reflects an identity of certain culture, but generally it is slowly disappearing because of the globalization. Everything is becoming similar currently. The Culture idea in Architecture is as a way to find the different.The ideas of culture, which respond in the projects, have many different ways to express. It can be find specific points and describe its simple, or abstract; general or specific; clear or a little of memory. Culture idea in design is not only in Architecture, but also in Interior Design, specially the culture of brand design.

ARCHITECTURE FOLIO
Concept Design requires that the architect find out the real issues of the site within its surrounding urban context, more than that need to understand the aim of design, and encapsulating the principles of the scheme. Concept design includes a range of ideas, and develop it become a guiding concept, a series of diagram ideas, which show “where” the design come from, “what” and “how much” resolves the issues. Base on the idea, testing the form, programs, drawings to show the results.
Façade is not only the face of the building, or the simple element of the design. There are many different interesting ideas to test and create the Façade in future, which is the Pattern of Façade, Facade combines with program, and Façade is controlled by Technology.
