Hey guys, I’m Ashvin and previously from ACSI. I’m in AF/03 and eh how did Noah get build his boat? An arkitetct duh… get it? No? Ok bye and it’s my first time using Twitter bear with me😐 #be904 #be904_3 @ZhengpingLiow

[Ashvin @4shvinn]

on how to build and design something that is resistant and durable to stand the climate in the coming years, be it floods or extreme heat. (/end) #be904 #be904_3

[Ashvin @4shvinn]

With the ever changing world, one will not be able to expect the change in the climate over the years and it may be unpredictable. However such predictions may be valid and provide essential information… (1/) #be904 #be904_3

@Iain16689923 Science. Thats why we have to do site studies on climatic features to see how we need to shape our design to accomodate such weather. #be904

One question i have:
What causes a change in architectural movements. Is it the growth of technology or the preference of people?
#be904 #be904_4 #S1W07

[Ashvin @4shvinn]

It actually really depends on the situation. A movement normally occur to both the preference of people and technology as when technology advances, there are higher ambitions and expectations in architecture, capturing the zeitgeist of the era. #be904 #be904_3

@22Joachim But however, some of these materials that age well may not be suitable in some climates and they are unable to cope with the different weather conditions so I’m rather curious is there a specific way or method to refrain this from happening for future uses while being “timeless”

[Ashvin @4shvinn]

The most important thing I've learnt today is the understanding of materials. To understand materials, there are multiple things to be considered. For example, the cost of the material. For Kevin Mark Low, he uses a lot of bricks in (1/) #be904 #be904_3_1 #be904_3 #s1w17

[Ashvin @4shvinn]

I find this lecture very well elaborated and one thing question i have is that, if an architect wants a structure to age gracefully, what other considerations are there in terms of the kind of material used? (/end? #be904 #be904_3_2 #be904_3 #s1w17

[Ashvin @4shvinn]

During this process, building errors may occur when the assembly of materials are not structurally safe and juxtapose the aesthetics of the design or building due to the elements of human and humanising origin. (4/) #be904 #be904_3_1 #be904_3 #s1w17

Due to long working hours and Low pay, people tend to shift their interest from the big architecture firms to other jobs where it has higher pay and more fruitful environment. (/end) #be904_3 #be904_3_exit

[Ashvin @4shvinn]

After todays lecture, I am more aware what fresh architects graduates are earning and which path to take, be it a small firm or a major firm. As suggested a smaller firm is the best to start with and slowly progressing up.(1/) #be904_3 #be904_3_exit

[Ashvin @4shvinn]

As architecture is a very long process and you have to make the right career choices when doing so and being more aware of the different things required in this particular career interest in architecture. (2/) #be904_3 #be904_3_exit

[Ashvin @4shvinn]

There was nothing i struggled with todays lecture as it is rather clear but it is abit lengthy (/end) #be904 #be904_3 #be904_3_2 #S1W16

The most important thing I've learnt from this lecture is that mega firms represents a very small percentage of all firms while also controlling the majority of the staff and overall fee revenues in the (1/) #be904 #be904_3 #be904_3_1 #S1W16

[Ashvin @4shvinn]

The reason why this is important is that this knowledge is required when an architect degree graduate applies for jobs in various firms so that they will know the knowledge before entering a new job. (4/) #be904 #be904_3 #be904_3_1 #S1W16

After today's lecture, I have learnt that in designing a contemporary tropical house, not every detail has to resemble other houses and it should bring out its specialty and uniqueness despite it being in the same vicinity. (1/)#be904 #be904_3_1 #be904_3 #S1W15

[Ashvin @4shvinn]

One thing I struggled with is how does a contemporary tropical house stand out in difference when it requires the exact same necessities as other houses? (/end) #be904 #be904_3_1 #be904_3 #S1W15
