Project 01: Creative Writing

In this project, I had the opportunity to work with some amazing team members: Mira Yen, Sammi Chew, and Sherrina Ong Su.

In 3 short weeks, I was able to learn alongside them on producing an original written essay on the prompt of 'What is Sustainable Architecture?'

With creative liberty, we were able to write out our opinions on sustainable architecture as a concept, and how we believe what lies in its core, is something much more intangible.

Project 02: Daylighting

For the final project of this module, we are tasked to do a daylighting analysis on a building of choice, to which my group chose the Chapel in Valleaceron, located in Almaden, Spain.

We had the amazing opportunity to construct a model of the chapel digitally, and analyze how the architecture interacts with the daylight.
