Design Project 4 Personalized House PROJECT SUMMARY

In this project, we are axpected to design a personalized house which can become a home for a selected family at a given specific site. The maximum size of the house of the design should not exceed 300sqm in area and the house should be a single unit with maximum 3 bedrooms . Further, we are also expected to visit the assigned site as a group and understand the site conditions in terms of its setting, topography and nature. Client of the project is an artitect and the site locate near the Thalangama Lake. First I visited and studied the site – its context, topography, vegetation and other interesting features and did a SWOT ANALYSIS about the site. After, I made an appointment with my client and discuss with his about his requirements, preferences and the way he conduct his daily routines and family activities. And then derived a design brief based on the discussion with my client and work out the key spaces and connections based on that. Considering the needs and desires of the client and his family members, I entered into my design with the concept of Comforting Light. With applying the anthropometric standards and ergonomic design principles for space planning, I organized the spaces of the house to accomodate the basic needs of all the family members of the house and giving priority to their interaction and cohesion as a family. Further, I practically applied the knowledge gain regarding climatic conditions, social interaction and construction technologies to complete my project successfully
