REFLECTION

Experience
To sum up the past 14 weeks, I would say it was a doable experience since experiencing the hell that is architecture. I can see how the teachers are pushing the students and I think it's good to push students but not without giving sufficient feedback to the students. I've actually come to enjoy this class, Mr Vinod has done a good job at trying to push the students into making great designs, it's just the morning slot and 6 hour time period that irk me.

Observation
I've noticed while going through this class, I've began to appreciate typography more and opened my eyes to more typography designs. I've never noticed the many different designs we can make with typography and that typography is actually a very delicate element to design.

Findings
There is much more to typography than I thought and it has opened a new door of possible design opportunities for me to explore. From this course I've learned to be more detail oriented with my work like looking at alignment. I've also tried my hand at experimenting on many different layouts for the final project, it has opened new ways of experimentation that I can put into any future designs I do.

The story goes as Daedalus helps the princess run away and the king gets mad so the throws Daedalus into the dungeon tower so I had drawn some thumbnails just to show a brief idea of what will happen but then I had changed the composition while drawing these digitally to make the story more interesting.

INTERCULTURAL DESIGN

7/1/2019 - 22/2/2019 (Week 1 - Week 7) Ng Shu Zhi 0327158 Intercultural Design PROJECT 1 : PROPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS WORK When we were first introduced to this project and the location for our data collection, we chose to do some research about the places we were going to go to to get an idea of what we could focus on while we were in Korea and where we may find some of the items. Then we researched on some things in Korea which we could focus on while we were at Korea. Then after some consultation we realised that collecting data isn't just collecting physical data like objects in Korea so we changed our idea and thought about focusing on environmental data based on the hypothesis we had made. Here is our proposal slides. REFLECTION Doing the proposal about a place which I'm not familiar with is quite difficult. I'm not very familiar with the culture like their mannerism but I was familiar with their modern culture as I liked watching Korean vlog
