@nathanielllim So, before we rave about the form of this building and it’s archi-poetry of its bla bla bla social space bla bla. Have you studied the floor plans and it’s relationship to it’s specific context? :) #be904
After Lecture S1W17: Ping talks about Kevin Mark Low and his architectural and teaching life. He also introduced K.Mark Low’s mentor, Ronald Lewcock. He is also said that judging a book by its cover is rubbish. We all are guilty, being judgmental.#be904_4#be904#S1W17 (1/)
I find this lecture refreshing. Ping finally comes back with the original Youtube lecture videos. A refreshing way of interaction between the lecturer and student. A detailed study on Asian perspectives. #be904#be904_4#S1W17 (4/)
and position as a global city of unique and powerful qualities. Reference: https://t.co/wx1URDaMhD
Cool TT video on the entire process of construction : https://t.co/xFPjfpBA5N #be904#be904_4#S1W16 (End)
Interesting that I’ve never come across this building before. The MahaNakhon Building in Bangkok, Thailand. Constructed 2016. #be904_4#be904#S1W16 (1/)
MahaNakhon, as an embodiment of architectural intentions as well as an example of how architecture can engage the city and surrounding social space to stand as a representation of the city’s aspirations #be904#be904_4#S1W16 (3/)
S1W16 After Lecture Reflection: I learnt the entire architecture food chain. From the bottom of the chain to the top. Scavengers to Tribes to Warlords and lastly Megafirms. I feel that the hierarchy will always stay the same. #be904#be904_4#S1W16 (1/)
In New York, there is an inclusion of art and science.I find the lecture new and refreshing. Where in the last few weeks, we were looking into the design concepts but in this lecture , we looked at who’s behind the designs. #be904#be904_4#S1W16 (4/)
S1W15 Exit Tweet: Second time meeting together as a course. Ping introduced hierarchy in architecture. We went through inspiration. I think that inspiration is a copy-paste. I think it’s appropriate as many architects and designers take inspirations. #be904_4#be904#be904_exit
One thing that came was also if the Art Science museum is aesthetically pleasing. I definitely find it special. However I wouldn’t find particularly aesthetically pleasing, but in this case I think i fits really well with the surroundings. (MBS) #be904#be904_4_exit#S1W14 (End)
Exit Tweet : A good and thoughtful about this week’s lecture. We had a group discussion with Poh. One interesting thing that came out was the definition on minimalist. Is the esplanade minimalist ? #be904#be904_4_exit#S1W14 (1/)
