Final A2 research board and A3 visual narrative

PROJECT 2 : Interactive support pod design.
PROGRESS
THIS IS AN RESEARCH PAPER ON THE ARCHITECT THAT I SELECTED THROUGH PAPER DRAW.
MY ARCHITECT IS CJ LIM
THE RESEARCH PAPER CONSISTS OF HIS LIFE'S TIMELINE, AS IN WHAT HAPPENED WHEN, HENCE THE SWIRLY LINES, AND THEN COMES ALL HIS BOOKS AND AWARDS AND ALL THE PROJECTS HE HAS WORKED ON TILL NOW. IT MAY SOUND LIKE NOT MUCH INFORMATION, BUT IT IS ALOT AND IT WAS HARD TO FIT EVERYTHING IN THE VISUAL RESEACH PAPER.
THIS IS MY FIRST VISUAL RESEARCH POSTER AND MY FIRST VISUAL NARRATIVE AT A CRITIQUE SESSION. THE POSTER IS DONE ON PHOTOSHOP BUT EVERYTHING IS WRITTEN BY HAND. THE VISUAL NARRATIVE WAS DRAWN BY HAND AS WELL.
THIS WAS MY SECOND SET OF VISUAL RESEARCH AND NARRATIVE, BOTH DONE THE SAME WAY. THERE WAS NOT MUCH CHANGE IN MY POSTER, BUT THE NARRATIVE WAS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT, AND YET IT WAS NOT YET QUIET THERE.
IN THE END, THIS IS WHAT I DESIGNED AND DREW FOR MY RESEARCH AND NARRATIVE, ONCE AGAIN THE A3 BOARD WAS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
POD MOCK UP 1


THIS WAS ONE OF MY FIRST MOCK UP FOR THE SUPPORT POD DESIGN, MY LECTURER PULLED APART 3 OF MY MODELS AND THE MADE THIS DESIGN, WHICH WAS GIVEN TO ME, TO EXPLORE AND COME UP WITH A FUNCTIONAL DESIGN.
POD MOCK UP 2





FROM THE PREVIOUS MODEL I WAS GIVEN, I HAD COME UP WITH THIS MODEL DESIGN WHICH IS SHOWN ABOVE, BUT ONCE AGAIN IT WAS PULLED APART BY BOTH MY LECTURES AND WAS GIVEN ANOTHER DESIGN TO EXPLORE FURTHER . THEY WERE PUSHING MY CREATIVE BOUNDARIES AND HELPING ME THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX.
POD MOCK UP 3






THIS IS THE MODEL I CAME UP WITH ON THE CRIT SESSION DAY.
FINAL POD DESIGN






THIS WAS MY FINAL MODEL. BUT HOWEVER, THE COLOR AND THE MATERIALS NEEDED O BE CHANGED AND THE CRAFTSMANSHIP WAS NOT GOOD ENOUGH EVEN THOUGH THE IDEA AND THE FUNCTIONS WERE THERE. SO I REDID MY MODEL ALL OVER AGAIN, WITH THE FUNCTIONS WORKING SMOOTHER. THE NEW MODEL AND THE PRESENTATION BOARD PICTURES ARE GIVEN BELOW.
FINAL POD MODEL






FINAL PRESENTATION BOARD

THIS IS MY FINAL PRESENTATION BOARD. THE COLOR THEME IS GREY, BLACK, WHITE AND RED BECAUSE THAT IS THE THEME OF MY SUPPORT POD. THE BOARD HAS THE BEFORE AND AFTER FLOOR PLANS OF THE POD AND ITS FUNCTIONS, THERE IS THE SECTION FROM THE SIDE AND THE 3D DIAGRAMS WITH THE ELEMENT SEPARATED AND ELABORATED MORE ON.

FINAL OUTCOME (THE BOARDS)

REFLECTION OF THE WHOLE SEMESTER

THIS JOURNEY WAS VERY OVERWHELMING TO START WITH, SINCE FROM WEEK ONE THE STUDY PRESSURE CAME IN HARD AND FAST. IT WAS A LOT TO TAKE IN, TOOK SOME TIME TO ADJUST TO HOW DIFFERENT THINGS WERE AND THE REQUIREMENTS AND STANDARD OF WORK HAD RISEN UP. BUT I WAS DETERMINED THAT I WILL DO BETTER THIS SEMESTER THAN THE PREVIOUS, AD IT WAS A CONSTANT BATTLE WITH MYSELF, MY EMOTIONS AND MY HEALTH TO KEEP ON GOING AND TO MEET THE DEADLINES WITH A WORK THAT IS JUST BARELY ACCEPTABLE BUT A WORK THAT I WAS HAPPY WITH. I ADMIT MY PERFORMANCE DID DROP IN THE MIDDLE DUE TO SOME PERSONAL ISSUES BUT THAT DID NOT STOP ME FROM PICKING MYSELF BACK UP AGAIN AND TRYING MY BEST. AND THE CREDIT GOES TO MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS FOR BEING SUPPORTIVE AND OF COURSE TO MY LECTURERS FOR BEING SO AMAZING AND MAKING ME BELIEVE I CAN DO IT. BECAUSE WHAT USED TO HAPPEN BEFORE IS, I USED TO GET ALL SORTS OF CRAZY IDEAS, BUT IN THE END I WOULD NOT USE THEM IN MY DRAWINGS
OR IN MY MODEL BECAUSE IT WAS TOO DIFFICULT TO DO IT IN REALITY. BUT THIS TIME THANKS TO MY LECTURERS, THEY PUSHED ME TO REALIZE MY DREAMS, TO ACTUALLY TRY TO SEE IF MY IDEAS WORKED, AND SO I DID. AND TO MY SURPRISE, IT DID WORK! AND I ENDED UP WITH A MODEL WHICH WAS THEN SAID TO BE "THE BEST MODEL OF THE DAY"OH WHAT A PROUD MOMENT IT WAS. ALL THOSE SLEEPLESS NIGHTS, THOSE SICK DAYS, THE MENTAL BREAKDOWNS, AND CUTTING OFF CONTACT WITH MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY FOR A WHILE WAS ALL WORTH IT. NOTHING CAN PROBABLY MAKE ME FEEL AS PROUD AND HAPPY I FELT THAT PRESENTATION DAY. MY LECTURES WERE PROUD, MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS WERE PROUD OF ME, THAT FELT LIKE A REALLY BIG ACCOMPLISHMENT. NEVER WOULD I HAVE IMAGINED THAT THE PERSON WHO WAS STRUGGLING IN 1ST SEMESTER WOULD GET SELECTED IN 2ND SEMESTER FOR MODERATION. THIS WAS AN AMAZING JOURNEY WITH SOME EQUALLY AMAZING AND KIND PEOPLE, I HOPE FOR MY NEXT SEMESTER TO BE AS SUCCESSFUL AS THIS BUT WITH LESS PROCRASTINATION.
