We took a photo of my favourite building. Using Google Earth measured the length of the building. Then, using architect’s scale to draw the ground floor plan, roof plan and 2 elevation
Side 5
Ground Floor Plan Strengths:
Drawing my favourite building helped me understand how to draw plans by using architect’s scale.
Weaknesses:
Drawing the plans took me a lot of time to do it. Since it was my first time to use architect’s scale.
6
Opportunities:
With proper arrangements, i could see the structure of regular buildings and the design of buildings from plans.
Risks:
If the building was too big. It needed to use more than one graph paper to finish it. It may lose the paper easily.
Week 3: Tiny House ¼”=1’ Plan + Full Scale
Tiny House Ground Floor Plan - Taping After we designed the shape of tiny house and interior design with group mates, we used blue tape to tape our tiny house in real side (1:1).

Section (Taping)
Strengths:
Opportunities:
I was able to make my tiny house look large and have unique shape of building. A dome window is the most special place in this tiny house.
Maybe in the future, I will design the tiny house with second floor. The bed will be on second floor and the study table will be under the bed.
Weaknesses: I’m not sure I was able to determine that i have enough space for working or study without any study room or table.

Section (drawing)
Risks: There are big glass from the dome window. It makes the house become less privacy because people can see inside the house.

Week 4: SketchUp Array Tools-Trellis
14
Front 15
Strengths: I have the ability to group different parts and pieces together and create more different kind of funny cube.
Weaknesses: I often forgot what tools should i use, so i take a long time to figure them out.
16
Opportunities:
I would like to try to do more complex building component and create more vary shape by using that skills.
Risks:
If there are too many components groups, it is easy to mix up with others.
Week 5: SketchUp Patterns and Material Diagonal
1*2 Tiles
Checker
Stripe
Hex
Diamond
17
Strengths:
I learned how to create different kind of patterns.
Weaknesses:
Diamond and hex took me a lot of time to finish them because i can’t get the same number of square as the simple at first.
Opportunities:
I would like to try using those patterns outside or inside the building.

Week 5-8 Individual Tiny House Project

20
Narrative: This is my “Garden House�. 1. I made a roof garden. Since people usually work or study under pressure, planting flowers and plants may help them to release their pressure and feel relaxed. 2.
I focused on the brightness of the house. I made one more dome on the roof and made the windows become bigger in order to getting more light into the house. Therefore, we did not need to turn on too many lights and it can be environmentally-friendly.

South Elevation Strengths: I was able to find out the problems from the original tiny house and solve the problems by using different skills. Also, i learned how to use more tools.
Weaknesses: I made green roof but it may has accumulated water if it is raining. When the grass and dirt absorb water, it makes the roof become very heavy.
