There is a fine line between doing what we love and love what we are doing. Are we helping people with our work? or are we just doing it for the money. This is the question an architect should ask themselves before embarking on the journey down architecture #BE904 #be904_5 #S1W04

[Yu Ya Win Htun (Irica) @YuYaWinHtun06]

R1 : The importance of knowing the answer to the question is important “Are we doing good architecture work to be famous or to affect some changes in people’s life?”
Everything has its purpose so do we.
We need to know what we are working for. (1/)#BE904 #BE904_5 #BE904R1 #S1W04

Working together in a team requires a-lot of negotiation and discussion. Sometimes some teammates might not be able to accept your view or have a completely different view from you. #BE904 #BE904_5 #S1W04

[Shun Lei Wutt Yi @shunleiwuttyi]

R1 One thing I learnt from today lecture is not to get easily convince by others and be stable n ready to explain our own version of true with facts. #be904 #be904_5 #be904R1 #S1W04

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

yes, i agree. we shouldn’t only be celebrating one individual architect or designer. It is a combined team effort to create the whole building. #BE904 #BE904_5 #S1W04

[aymaan fairuz @AymaanFairuz]

the most important thing i learnt today is that we tend to celebrate only the individuals that have created good ideas and make their name widely known, when in reality its the whole community that they're (1/2) #BE904 #BE904_5 #BE904R1 #S1W04

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

I have no questions or struggles for today’s lesson.

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

The most important thing i learnt from this lesson is that designing and building a building takes a whole team. Everyone needs to put in their effort. #BE904 #be904_5 #BE904R1 #S1W04

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

I found this lesson interesting and enjoyable. #BE904 #BE904_5 #BE904R2 #S1W04

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

design includes alot of creativity and it takes a whole team to do it. It is impossible to just create one on ur own. It needs a team with critical thinking skills, large amount of creativity and sometimes, some constructive criticisms. #be904 #S1W03

[yoke xuen @yoke_xuen]

i feel that the rise to the myth that buildings are created by individuals when clearly they are not, gives a big misconception about architecture. what makes design unique is one’s critical thinking skills because every design has pros and…(1/)

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

i agree, we shouldn’t think of building buildings with a straightforward mind, we have to think out of the box, let our creativity run feee instead of having a structured system to shape our thinking. #be904 #S1W03

[Nurul Amni Binte Zaini @amnizaini_22]

R1: The most important thing I learned today was that before designing, we shouldn’t be thinking of how the building will look like as that is the wrong process of thought instead of designing process, our minds have turned to styling process.(1/4) #BE904 #BE904_3 #BE904Rq #S1W03

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

every architect has their own creativity, their uniqueness. most architects are famous for very specific doors. for example, Zaha Hadid is famous for her futuristic with sharp angles and curving facades. #be904 #S1W03

[kat @kathleenseq33]

For this lesson, the most important thing I learnt was that every design or building is unique. when looking at a structure, it may make you feel feeling (A) but might make others feel feeling (B, C, D), and neither one of us is wrong. everyone feels and see things differently.

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

there is a clear difference between taking inspiration and copying. Inspiration is taking a small part of other’s work and then adding on to ur new and creative ideas, while plainly copying is just straight up copy and paste. #be904 #S1W02

[Shun Lei Wutt Yi @shunleiwuttyi]

R/1I always thought it is a crime to imitate other people ideas but it seems like I was wrong. In fact, we have to take inspiration from other architect’s work n that leads the birth of one own creativity. #be904 #be904_5
#be904R1 #S1W02

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

yes, there are many factors contributing to how and why we built the buildings in such way. History plays a large role on how we shape and build our buildings. We cannot copy from history , we can only learn. #be904 #S1W02

[yu shan @limyushan]

R1: I learnt that we cannot just copy and paste designs from precedent & case studies into our own work. we have to aim to understand the design and its underlying principles, so that we can learn and improve our design decisions #be904 #be904_5 #be904R1 #S1W02

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

yes i agree,creativity and originality will eventually run out in our mind and its nothing wrong to take inspiration from others. There is a fine line between plainly copying and taking inspiration. #be904 #S1W02

[Yu Ya Win Htun (Irica) @YuYaWinHtun06]

R1 : The most important thing I have learnt today is how originality fades away and how difficult it is.
We always have to learn from other architects and designers. Instead of learning and filling in each other’s mistakes, … (1/) #BE904 #BE904_5 #BE904R1 #S1W02

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

There are no concepts and ideas i struggled with during today’s lecture. #be904 #be904_05 #be904R3 #S1W03

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

The most important thing i learnt from today’s lecture is that learning from case studies doesn’t mean getting ideas for architecture and aesthetics is based on different forms like scale, proportions and textures. #be904 #be904_05 #be904R1 #S1W03

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

I found this lecture eye opening and i managed to have a deeper knowledge of case studies and different architecture forms. #be904 #be904_05 #be904R2 #S1W03

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

we can always use past examples to change our future and shape how he see out future. the past helps us learn from mistakes and teaches us not to repeat them again. the same idea goes for architecture. #be904 #be904_5

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

yes i agree, we can take inspiration from others but we cannot simple copy and paste. as designers, we need to have our own thinking and ideas from time to time. design is about creativity too. #be904 #be904_5

[Yu Ya Win Htun (Irica) @YuYaWinHtun06]

.. both architects and designers must follow the major procedures and processes while designing. It’s not like you draw the exterior and boom, done. We need to understand what we are designing. (3/) #BE904 #BE904_5 #BE904R1 #S1W02

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

there are no concepts that i struggled with during today’s lesson. #be904 #be904_5 #be904R3 #S1W01

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

1. the most important thing i learned today was that architecture buildings involve the past and the present. only learning from the past, will we then understand why our buildings are built this way. #be904 #be904_5 #be904R1 #S1W01

[charlotte @charl_DARCH05]

i found this lesson understandable and clear. #be904 #be904_5 #be904R2 #S1W01
