We are now doing a two week exercise, dealing with the smallest possible scale within your project.
You have to zoom in, and develop a small element of your project.
The choice will depend on the nature of your project. Today we have seen and decided some examples:
- Small public toilets in the park.
- A LED screen.
- A bench / cum roof-beam
- A lantern on the square.
- The DJ box.
It is desirable to choose or include something to sit on.
It is best to choose an autonomous element, preferably in the open air, or within a much larger space.
Make sure you tackle the materiality of your design; is it soft/hard/rough/heavy/light/shiny; include the users in your drawings; use a variety of tools/software: cad for precision, illustrator for clarity, models and photoshop for texture and feeling.
Next Thursday, you will join workshop T-41 in room 222, same schedule. It will be an in-house working session, so bring your materials (laptop, modelmaking gear, whatever you want to work with). You will be able to see how the fourth year students are dealing with microscale, and profs JLE Penelas and M Fonseca will provide feed-back (thanx!)
On Friday we will do on-line tuition. E-mail me your pdf (max 2Mb) before 16:00 to carlos.arroyo@uem.es .
This exercise will be handed in on Friday the 7th (which, as stated before, is no puente)
Format: A1
