Birdwatch Tower

􏰀IN GROUP OF TWO, WE ARE TO BEGIN WITH A VOLUME IN THE FORM OF A SOLID CUBE 3 X 3 X 3 METER. BY SELECTING A CHARACTER, WE ARE TO DESIGN A BIRD WATCH TOWER AT FRASER’S HILL FOR THE PURPOSE OF BIRD WATCHING/CONTEMPLATION/SIMPLY JUST TO ENJOY THE VIEW. IT SHALL INCLUDE THE ACTIVITIES OF RESTING, MEDITATION, OBSERVATION, VIEWING ETC. IN WHICH FURNITURE AND EQUIPMENT MUST FIT AND BE INCORPORATED WITH THE DESIGN. THIS STRUCTURE SHOULD CORRESPOND TO THE SITE THAT WE HAVE CHOSEN. ADEQUATE ACCESS, CIRCULATION AND FENESTRATION ARE MANDATORY.

LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE PROJECT

INDIVIDUALLY, WE NEED TO PRODUCE OUR 5 PERSONAL INTERPRETATION OF THE SITE IN THE FORM OF SKETCHES.

AFTER THAT, WE NEED TO PRODUCE A SERIES OF DETAIL DRAWINGS (1:50 SCALE) AS A SET OF A SERIES OF PLANS, SECTIONS, ELEVATIONS, AXONS AND SO ON TO EXPLORE THE CUBE THAT MUST BE DONE FREEHAND AND BEAUTIFULLY RENDERED.

GROUP WORK:

TAN JOU WEN

TAN KAI CHONG

FINALLY, WE NEED TO PRODUCE A FINAL MODEL (SCALE 1:50). THE FINAL MODEL MUST BE BEAUTIFULLY CRAFTED WITH BALSA, MODEL BOARD, PERSPECT, BROWN BOARD, ETC TO BE LEFT IN THEIR NATURAL COLOUR AND TO BE MOUNTED ON A AN A3 MDF BOARD.

REFLECTION

IN THIS PROJECT, I HAD LEARNT TEAMWORK WITH MY TEAMMATES WHICH WE SEPERATED WORKS WISELY. I'M IN-CHARGE OF MODEL MAKING, MY GROUPMATE IN-CHARGE OF BOARD BUT WE HELP EACH OTHER TOO. IT'S NICE TO HAVE A GROUP WORK LIKE THIS WHICH WE CAN LEARN FROM EACH OTHER FROM THEIR STRONG POINT.
