Week One

Reading: Zeara Polo, A. 2010. Between Ideas and Matters.

According to Zeara-Polo, the diagram does not play a representational role in the design process but provides an organisational and can have a performative quality depending on how it is deployed. Explain how Diagram is different from Signs and Symbols? (100 words Maximum)

Signs and Symbol are used as representation to convey the meaning of dynamic objects. However, diagram can accomplish more than that. It could present the relationship and concept. It organizes the idea of circulation, threshold, space arrangement with the use of signs and symbols. So, it can be said that diagram can communicate more complex ideas or even something that does not exist physically yet.

Fig.4 Floor plan

Fig. 5 Elevations and section

The north and south elevations are primarily used to draw the objects’ corners on X and Z planes, which the point than get located later on Y plane by the west elevation. External image of model is also used to outline the roof’s shape. Then, the basic shape is formed. Nevertheless, it is an origami architecture, so all the surfaces need to be planar and connected with the floor plan. The matallic skeleton structure which could be seen in most of image are constructed in the model as well.

Week Two

Reading: Hertzberger H. 2005. The in-between and The Habitable Space Between Things, from Lessons for Students in Architecture.

Herzberger discuss how design should not be extreme in its functionality. Use your precedent study to explain how the pavilion allows for an appropriation of use. (100 words Maximum)

Libeskind Serpentine Pavillion 2001 was multi purposed structure. It could hold a meeting event, gallery, cafĂŠ and different kind of affordability. Also, without the convenience structure including the proper door, this pavilion still provided several thresholds. The pavilion was not exactly enclosed building but because of the folding shape, it still offered high level of privacy. With the reflecting aluminum material it would blend nicely with the surrounding environment.

Week Two

Isometric

Libeskind Serpentine Pavillion, 2001 This isometric drawing reveals all the objects, most of opening and overlapping areas. Some of the skeleton structure which was modelled in more detail are shown here as well. The aluminum panel material is visually presented. It would reflect the surrounding environment and are easily constructed in a short period of time.

The threshold is defined where three connected Aluminium surfaces touch the ground. While the more overlapping spaces would provide a different stage senses of privacy, with the most overlapping part; the more sense of privacy. The circulation can emerge in many ways since it is such a complex shape. With a bigger opening, there will be more circulation happening. The visitor would try to walk through most part of the pavilion even outside away from the overlapping walls.

Week Two Diagrams

Circulation

Threshold

The skeleton structure display where it would be constructed to the floor. The middle floor plan represents how much each part will be occupied. This is due to the cafe inside or the meeting that happened. The circulation shows that there are many paths that visitor could take with the famous ones happened between the bigger opening and closer to the main street and gallery nearby.

The threshold diagram is defined by the volume of the each different shapes. The extra interrnal spaces are created where both different shapes connect to each other by sitting on the edges of the same floor piece. The darker tone of grey represents the transition.

Appendix

Process

Trace the floor plan and extrude by 250 mm

Creating a roof piece locating by the north, south and west elevation

Creating two planar surface on ground

“Orient� the two pieces at the right corner

Trim to a certain shape

7

Appendix Process

Rotate 3D put them in the right direction

Connect with the floor plan and trim off the excess part

Repeat the same thing to other pieces

Check if everything is in the right position with the given elevations

8

Appendix

Process

“Orient” the cuboids accroding to the aligned lines

“Rotate3D” so the cuboid face to the same right direction

“Trim” the external part with the surface shape

Use “Bisector” to find the middle angle then trim out the overlapping parts to tidy up the corners

9

For material pattern. “Array” out the line but 600 mm apart

Move those lines infront the surface where it will be located Instead of using “Projetion” use “Pull” It will project the lines evenly, even through the surface is slanted

Repeat it with the other side It can also be rotated to any angle

Complete the pattern on the whole model
