DESIGN COMMUNICATION

The module introduces fundamental skills for the appropriate communication of architectural design. It engages different means of visualization and expression of space and spatial ideas through architectural drawings to prepare students with the skills required in design projects.

T1: Self Expression

Emergence

A nosedive into the abyss;
Gladly, I will remember it all.
Oh, but just think,
How i wish you would remember me.
But here we are, aren’t we?

Surely there are
And will be waves of failure that
Washes us under
But no flower will cease to grow.
Through these storms
I will emerge
And look the pain
In the eyes
But it is the sweetness that shall remain
And sweet it shall be.

T2: Hatching Techniques

Various hatching techniques are applied for this assignment.

T3: Architectural Handwriting

Lyrics from Saw You In A Dream by The Japanese House
