ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN 1
GEOMETRY AND FORM: Architectural Design Elements and Principle
In this assignment, we were briefed and given task to do on the first week of the semester. This assignment focuses on our understanding of the Ordering Principle and the Primary Elements. I had to choose ONE Ordering Principle to use the Primary Elements to express and explain my design. I chose Rhythm to use the primary principles which are points, lines and planes to express my understanding on that ordering principle.
RHYTHM AND POINTS
As for the first model, I used points to express and explain what i understood about the Ordering Principle 'Rhythm'. Rhythm is a strong, repeating pattern of a movement. Points were shown in a rhythmic way which can be shown in top view. Points are also connected to line as two points connected to each other forms a line, therefore the other views of the model is showing lines.
RHYTHM AND LINES
As for the second model, I used lines to show what I understand about rhythm. Rhythm not only can be in a regular pattern, it can also be in different rhythmic pattern such as in a random rhythmic pattern which is shown in this model. This model shows that rhythm can be in a random pattern using lines. It can be seen through different angles of this model.
RHYTHM AND PLANES
In this third model, planes where used to express and show what rhythm is. Rhythm was shown in every angle of this model through elevation views which are planes on front and back, and lines on left and right. As for the top view, rhythm is also shown through lines. The main focus is the planes that are in an alternative pattern while the sides which shows lines are in random patterns
RHYTHM:
POINTS AND LINES
This is the final model of the assignment. In this final model, I combined two primary principles which are 'Points' and 'Lines' to show my understanding of what Rhythm is and the different patterns of rhythms. Rhythm such as random and regular patterns are shown in my final model which are very interesting to be seen combined in a model as i did my exploration.
