it would be good for me to always keep in mind when designing to accommodate for a lot of things (site context, weather , easy to maintain , culture…etc). Cause I think it would be a good practice to have for an architect #be904 #be904_1 #be904_1_1 #S1W17 (2/)

The most important thing I've learnt today is the importance of understanding the underlying architecture principle. This is a transferable knowledge which allows one to adapt and act accordingly to different conditions. (1/)

Materials, consider the labor, the price, the quality and functionality, and building errors (elements of humanizing)
Specific context,  Even the same area of a building can have a different context and condition, (2/)

The most important thing I learnt today is that architecture is usually done in different perspectives, as we all grow up in different places. To understand a context, we would have to integrate ourselves into the area, so as to adopt... #be904 #be904_1 #be904_1_1 #S1W17 (1/)

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/)

[Christine @christineSP22]

buildings by famous firms. When they prioritize form over function, they work the services and construction around the form rather than basing the form on the architecture principles, disregarding so many things or making things difficult (2/) #be904 #be904_1 #be904_1_1 #S1W17

[f.adilah @dilaDARCH]

the purpose of a case study is not to know how the building looks or to celebrate what works, rather, it is to figure out what the underlying principles are.

The main thing I learnt in this lesson was the importance of understanding design principles, as well as being familiar with the site context or with princples that apply to the site, and how those principles could improve the design process #be904 #be904_1 #be904_1_1 #S1W17

[Yi Zen @tan_yizen]

If a building is originally made using the specific site context at that time, what would happen to it if a new building is built around it in the future? Wouldn't it ruin some of the aspects of the older house?

[Yi Zen @tan_yizen]

I learned about the 3 ideas of kelvin mark low

Product as process
We should design things to solve problems without increasing the number of problems for others like making maintenance of the house more tedious (1/)

[Yi Zen @tan_yizen]

It also applies to the way the country constructs their building and if new designs are relevant to that context (4/)

[Marcus Koh @kyjmarcus]

your site is just as important as it will inform you better on how you can react to the climate in your site. Although, conservation and traditions are important to take note of, #be904 #be904_1 #be904_1_1 #S1W15... (3/)

[Marcus Koh @kyjmarcus]

I learnt that it is important to find the right firm for yourself, and one that allows you to grow in a way that they accept mistakes and have mentors around you who are willing to show you the ropes of the architectural world #be904 #be904_1 #be904_1_1 #S1W16...(1/)

[Tan Zi Xuan @zixuann22]

I learned the difference between the topical house and the contemporary house... also when studying the context should study the specific context as every site is different, and design the architecture form based on the specific context. (1/)

Can tribes combine to form megafirms? (/end)

[Yi Zen @tan_yizen]

I learned that there are 4 main catergories for architecture practices: scavenger, tribes, warlord, megafirms.Its imporant to know how the industry is organised for the future if i were to work at a architecture firm (1/)

Didnt struggle much with this lecture (/end)

[Yi Zen @tan_yizen]

Its important to understand the design principles from the tropical house and see its relevancy and how we can adapt and apply it to our current specific site context (1/)
