Currently in a love-hate relationship with Architecture 🥰

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R2: The aesthetics of architectural works are important, but we also have to remember to give recognition to the structures and materials used in them, which can easily go unseen. (/end)

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R2: but their remnants stay and are still influential to the way we practice and understand architecture, like the Bauhaus movement which teaches about material and structural honestly, which is something I think is important in architecture. (2/)
#be904 #be904_1 #be904R2 #S1W04

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R1: still take precedence as architecture should still be about pushing our creativity and capabilities to their limits, and not jumping on bandwagons and taking “inspiration” from others by straight up imitating their work. (/end)
#be904 #be904_1 #be904R1 #S1W04

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R1: meeting of social needs of people (Modernism Era), and more. We have to be attuned to the changing of architectural eras so as to keep relevancy and to be able to meet the needs of the public. However, ones personal creativity and taste (2/)

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R2: I have found this lecture beneficial to my understanding of architecture and the impacts modernisation has on it, as well as risks such as pragmatic acceptance, which simply just looks like a straight copy & paste of other’s architectural works
#be904 #be904_1 #be904R2 #S1W03

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R1: We should be wary of committing such acts ourself and should allow ourselves the opportunity to let our creativity work freely, only taking inspiration from the ideals in the work of others if needed. (/end)

#be904 #be904_1 #be904R1 #S1W03

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R1: I have learnt that with modernisation, the architectural works of others have become increasingly vulnerable to acts of pragmatism where other architects gain “inspiration” from others and imitate their works for their own. (1/)

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

In todays tutorial, I learnt that architecture is not just about the form of a piece of work, but that the content within the work and of which the work is comprised of is equally as important and significant.

History really plays a huge part!

[Sanju @Sanju2774021024]

R2: I found this lecture useful as it taught me that I can make use of precedent studies to find out about mistakes made by past architects to avoid making the same mistake. It also taught me that precedents can be used to communicate ideas.

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

The connections from past to present can really be seen clearly!

[Sanju @Sanju2774021024]

R2: I found this lecture valuable as it taught me more about how architecture history bridges the gap between the bygone era and the present day which can be seen from how the colosseum influenced modern day entry and exit locations in stadiums. #be904 #be904_1 #be904R2 #S1W01

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R2: and works, with the allowance to study and learn the process of the ideas of the works of others. (/end)
#be904 #be904_1 #be904R2 #S1W02

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R2: I found this lecture eye-opening to the ease at which the architectural works of others are 'stolen'. It taught me that my work should not simply just consist of inspiration of the works of others, but should consist mainly of my own ideas (1/)
#be904 #be904_1 #be904R2 #S1W02

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R1: learnt and not based of their works to not rob ourselves of the chance to let ourselves shine. (/end)
#be904 #be904_1 #be904R1 #S1W02

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R1: The most important thing I have learnt today is that there is very little room for error when it comes to precedent studies. It is really easy for one to simply 'copy and paste' the architectural works of others and label it their own with (1/)
#be904 #be904_1 #be904R1 #S1W02

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R1: minimal changes. In doing so we ourselves are losing out the chances to let our creativity shine and create an original piece of work. Instead we should learn from the works of others if have to and create our own work based on the ideas (2/)

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

Exit ticket: I have learnt today about the functionality of architectural designs and its differences and uses. Through todays discussion, I can also see the use of criticism and critical thinking in my learning to help gain different perspectives.

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R2: more than what meets the eye and I am very excited to learn more about it in the upcoming lectures. (/end)
#BE904_1 #be904 #S1W01

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R2: I found this lecture very insightful as it had widened my knowledge on some important aspects of architecture such as the need for critical thinking, as well as the rich history and theory behind it. It has definitely let me see that architecture is(1/)
#BE904_1 #be904 #S1W01

[Ye Xi Zhi @XiZhiii]

R1: The most important thing I have learnt today is that architecture is not just about the theory behind it, but it has a rich culture and history to it which plays a role in our learning and understanding of what it is to be an architect.

Hi everyone my name is XiZhi (or you could call me xz) and I am from studio 01! I am looking forward to learning the many different aspects of architecture as well as the intriguing history behind it in my AF module! Looking forward to school starting next week😆
