Project Requirement
In this project, I have to group in a group of five in order to complete this project. We were given a few of architects to choose from and do some researches on him/ her/ them. After some researches, we have to draw a series of architectural drawing and build some working models based on the building that the architects were known for.
Our group had selected an architect firm known as SO-IL (Solid Objective- Idenburg Liu). Based on what we researched, we found out that the architect firm was formed by a pair of couple who named Florence Idenburg and Jing Liu. We used the building named Kukje Art Gallery, Korea as our research building and had done a series of drawings and working models based on this building.

Through this project, I have know more about these architects and their design principles and style. Besides that, I have also gain ability to diagram and analyse architectural work of the selected architects. Through these knowledge I gained, I am able to develop more in my future designs.
Project Two: Bay Watch Tower
Project Requirement
In this group project, I was required to group with my classmate in a group of two. Before we started this project, we had done a site visit to Penang Island to collect information on site-Pantai Kerachut, Teluk Bahang, Penang Island. After the site visit, a full site analysis were done by the whole batch of students including me. After duel with the site analysis assignment, we started our design of the bay watch tower at Pantai Kerachut.

Reflection
Through completing this project, I had learnt that the way to generate ideas through the nature I had observed. Through visualize the conceptual drawings and making conceptual models, I got a lots of ideas that suitable in designing a watch tower. Besides that, i had also developed my skills in exploring the user requirement and simple spatial organization skills and site responding to develop an architectural proposition. I knew more about the relation of the human proportion to the space which is very important in architecture.
Final Project: Pantai Kerachut Retreat House
Project Requirement
This is an individual project that require us to design a retreat house at Pantai Kerachut. We were required to produce a 2 A2 presentation board which contained a series of architectural drawings and related site analysis. Besides that, we also need to produce working models in the scale 1: 50 for our retreat house designed.

Through this final project, I have learnt that how to design a house to the specific user at the specific space. The specific user require a specific space for he/ she to live on. Besides that, I have also gained the abilities to transform my concept into my design which suited the user. Furthermore, I got to know more about the space planing and the correct spatial quality to present.
