PROJECT 2 : Structure and Body: Materials, Anthropometric and Ergonomic Exploration- [Isolation Structure]
TASK
I was required to design a structure for self-isolation and to show personal behavior during this pandemic period. I can explore construction details, joinery, and structural quality and how the selected materials work together. The design intention of this isolation pod is based on project 1.I also learned about the ergonomics and anthropometry while constructing the model
DURATION
3 weeks
OBJECTIVE
1.To introduce and create an awareness of anthropometry and ergonomics and relating it to form and space.
2. To introduce basic understanding of structure in general, design principles and architectural terminologies on application to spatial and form configuration.
3. To create and work on a structure installation and understand material, quality of space, human scale, and articulation form
PROGRESS
The narrative design of ATARAXIA combines the idea of wave concept structure and concave concept idea that intended to be a relaxing and calm space. ATARAXIA allows me to conceal myself, reflect and even realization. This model is structured with 2 standard principle and elements which are shapes and rhythm. The pattern and arrangement of each wall is unique and different. Its emphasis on the shading creating by the rope and planes that turns out amazing and interesting shadows.
TATTOO STAMPS
I started the project with creating the tattoo stamps ,I have decided on relates to one of my models from project 1 that has an element of shape and rhythm. I designed my stamp with different sizes of square shapes that would eventually create a classical order and showing a progressive rhythm of my model. The second tattoo stamp showing the anthropometric that has different angle with the same banal action.
ORTHOGRAPHIC DRAWINGS
MOCKUP MODEL
I start doing some mockup model before proceed to my final. These is two of the mockup model based on my initial sketch. I had improvise it and come out with better outcome
Outcome of FINAL MODEL
For my final outcome, meditation posture is my main banal action as in it gives me a feeling that I can produce a deep state of relaxation and tranquil mind which these seats are the most comfortable action to me. The emotion relates to my banal actions was sense of calm, peace and relaxing. Relaxing emotions are connected to my current situation that I need to practice mindfulness due to heavy workload and school assignment and I need a space for me to relief stress.
Reflection
THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS
In the end of this project I have the Ability to capture and translate information to 3D sketches and translate them into model. I complete all model and presentation slides in the end of this project.
LIFELONG LEARNING
I am able to show my progress during every week tutorial and getting my work improved after the lecture feedback. I also get to learned from others mistake and produce a better outcome.
