Week 9 – Tasks for Studio and Independent Study for Week 10

· Get your 2-Page interactive PDF marked off by your tutor. You will be given a mark out of 10 that will be recorded towards your course grade.

· Start exploring concepts based on your analytical research from last week, and begin to deconstruct your base model to test ideas and a possible re-envisioning of your planned building. Make sure to always save in separate version, so you always have the original base model to refer back to. Post any images of your progression, or influences to your blog.

· In discussion with your tutor, and focusing on your 150 word concept text, finalise your concept idea for the re-representation of your chosen architecture, thinking creatively, and using a combination of images, montages, sketches, text and quick models to highlight your ideas. Post all work to your blogs.

Things that need to be considered as you develop Assignment 2:

· The concept of your re-envisioned architecture

· Research into a case study building and how the representation styles used can influence your own work

· Highly detailed models of your design

· Animations and models to be incorporated into your Interactive PDFs

· Interactive PDF, and the way you intend to incorporate multi-media elements

· Print versions of your PDFs

· The third format for your presentations that you intend to use.

Independent Study

· For independent study, individually choose an additional building of your chosen architect (other than the building you modelled as a group) as a case study. Go to libraries to find books, journals, etc. about your chosen case study building.

· Post images and 250 words of text on your case study, concentrating on the representation used to present the building.

· Continue developing your re-interpretation of your building working from your 150 word concept, your analytical research and begin to consider a third representation format that you intend to incorporate into your final presentations.

· Bring a draft version of your intended re-interpretation of your architecture to class next week for feedback.
