BIOGRAPHY S I R I N A L AW Sirina is currently a second year Architecture student at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. She was born and raised in Hong Kong for 11 years before she moved to Cupertino, California for middle and high school. Her passions were always more geared towards the artistic side. She dances, plays a Chinese instrument at senior homes as a volunteer, and she loves working with kids at an art school back at home. Even though she hasn’t really gotten the chance to pick up any of those in college, being able to express her creativity and working at studios for architecture has definitely satisfied her artistic needs here in college.

EXERCISE 1 - SERIES 1 STANDARDIZATION To define the basic elements of design and understand the basic structure, basic geometry, basic construction tectonics and the use of a well-defined dimensional system. Exploring the preliminary principles of a standard system of bays, and designing in section.

EXERCISE 1 - SERIES 2 C U S T O M I Z A T I O N Looking at sectional transformation that in turn transforms an overall form while designing with a set of rules. Some of the rules include, project must follow the 3 dimensions or the x, y, and z spatial coordinate system and the transformations must follow a systematic logic of incremental units and cannot be completely arbitrator or intuitive.

EXERCISE 1 - SERIES 3 DOUBLE WALL TUBULAR CONSTRUCTION Experimenting with creating sectional bays that look at a tube within a tube or double wall construction options. Acknowledging structural elements/system that is covered with a finish both on the exterior and the interior for thermal comfort, daylighting, and climate concerns. This project allows us to explore standard construction methods + materials and custom construction methods + materials.

EXERCISE 3
APPLY AND INTEGRATE PROGRAM + PASSIVE ENERGY STRATEGIES + DAYLIGHTING This final project of the design process allows me to apply site and climate considerations, basic functional considerations and necessities as well as specific programmatic considerations. 4 main designs factors I focused on was 1. the siting of my project for best passive energy strategies and view 2. hierarchy of entry and circulation through site and building 3. accessible site access 4. program considerations

REFLECTION
This quarter in comparison to the last quarters, I was able to practice designing a building with more technical elements and knowledge in mind which was very different from what I’m used to. I thought it was really useful to also implement more realistic concepts even in the early designing process. I thought that designing more technically played out really well as I progressed through my project this whole quarter and the different series within the project flowed into each other really well. To improve, I’d like to do more process work and experiment more on different graphics, layouts and designs to improve my poster presentation.
