criticising architecture is important because it allows us to learn from past mistakes and improve on them without repeating them subconsciously #be904 #be904_1 #S1W15

I think this exploitation will only just reflect badly for the company if they were to advocate something that is opposite of their mottos. Furthermore, if they were to continue treating their employees badly, it will only be a matter of time before the newer ones start to leave.

This living room is INCREDIBLE 😮

South African architecture is AMAZING

@SPFelix_TT @ZhengpingLiow RT: Scavengers work alone, an independent firm, tribes are multiple firms working together. I should be right, correct me if I'm wrong😅

but doesn't mean we have to succumb to that way of thinking when the time comes for us to make our own decisions #be904 #be904_1 #be904_1_1 #S1W17

[Marcus Koh @kyjmarcus]

and it won't be taking into account who the real end users are going to be. This is a harsh reality we as students are coming to realise, #be904 #be904_1 #be904_1_1 #S1W17 (3/)

[Marcus Koh @kyjmarcus]

who these people really are as human beings. It is also important to under site specificity as we wouldn't want to be designing something that has not relevance whatsoever to the context of the site, it will be redundant... #be904 #be904_1 #be904_1_1 #S1W17 (2/)

[Marcus Koh @kyjmarcus]

I have learnt that we should always be discerning in looking up to any architect and anybody in general, as we should always look into what their princlples that have shaped the way they built is important as it is a reflection of...#be904 #be904_1 #be904_1_1 #S1W17 (1/)

This apartment penthouse is GOALS

[Kayla Tham @DARCH_kayla]

On how many people in the architecture scene view it. Eventually, we'll form our own views too. After all, there is no definitive right or wrong right? (/end) #be904 #be904_2 #be904_2_1 #S1W13

[Kayla Tham @DARCH_kayla]

And this is further reiterated in his 5 points of architecture. It is honestly interesting to see the different focuses of each architect we're studying, as with Mies the previous lesson. This definitely broadens our perspective...(2/) #be904 #be904_2 #be904_2_1 #S1W13

[Kayla Tham @DARCH_kayla]

In this lecture, the most important part I've learnt would be the manifesto of Le Corbusier, "Towards a new architecture" where he emphasizes utility in the design of a house, like a machine... (1/) #be904 #be904_2 #be904_2_1 #S1W13

[Kayla Tham @DARCH_kayla]

Hence, I think it's important (and interesting) to know about our local scape. I didn't know there were different eras of shophouses. These attributes are also quite applicable to the architecture scene in Singapore. (/end) #be904 #be904_2 #be904_2_1 #S1W14

[Kayla Tham @DARCH_kayla]

In this lecture, the most important part I've learnt would be the attributes of tropical housing, in particular the shophouses as they are a part of Singapore's history. (1/) #be904 #be904_2 #be904_2_1 #S1W14

[Kayla Tham @DARCH_kayla]

An example learnt is Sun Yat Memorial Hall. Not many people have heard/even go there when asked. However, if function is still relevant (eg; retail), with maintainence, it should be conserved (/end) #be904 #S1W14_2_exit

[Kayla Tham @DARCH_kayla]

In this tutorial, I’ve learnt how trying to preserve local architecture culture is not as simple. There will be a dilemma on whether it is still relevant in present day. (1/) #be904 #S1W14_2_exit
