PROJECT SUMMARY A house is building where people live in and conduct their private lives. It is a place to dwell, and to feel at home. The architecture and expression of what a house is has changed dramatically with time, and will

also change based on the owner, site, and climate. The culture of the society and social strata will also have a profound effect on how a house is arranged in terms of space.

Architect Dimantha Weliange who was the selected tutor, the client for this project. We were expected to design a personalized house for his activities also compatible with his family members. Frist, we reached to the Site; Thalangama lake side, Studied its context, topography, Vegetation and Other interesting features. As the first step, an appointment was made with Client and gathered information about their Preferences, requirements and daily routine and family activities. Way to the design first I built a suitable concept for the project with the key spaces and developed the project according to the client’s requirements. Also maintain a Sketch journal of design idea and Development to show the progress.

Analysing the Client's requirements and developing the most suitable house for him not only for his daily routines but also, his family. Climatic Changes, Common relations, environment necessities are the foremost consequences that I congregated from this design project.

PROJECT SUMMARY Creative people have unique characters and individual ways in which they feel comfortable in doing what they do, and in this regard, they highly value their private workspace. An artist is a creative person who spends time to express their creativity through different media So often it is a private place for them to reflect, find sanctuary and carry out their creative work sometimes novel projects of experimental nature. It not only needs to have the right atmosphere but also be practical enough to be able to carry out the Artist’s work while catering to the basic human needs of space.

Dona Anjana Isangi Rajapakse who is a professional dancer I selected for my project. First, I met her and

interviewed her and getting well about her requirement, preferences, and the nature of the activities. Already she was a dancing teacher, and she wants a place and space that can easy transport, suitable for conducting classes also give same sign to other of her work. So finally, she prefer to her current studio site and I choose it as my project site and continued the design progress with it.

PROJECT SUMMARY Camping is a recreational outdoor activity which involves overnight stays away from home in a shelter. This recreational activity dates back to 1880’s and said to be popularized in UK on the river Thames. Later it evolves to many areas and present-day camping may be combined with hiking as in back-packing and is in conjunction with outdoor activities such as canoeing, climbing,

fishing, and hunting. To be regarded as "camping" a minimum of one night spent outdoors is required and this involves in getting the meals prepared for overnight stay at the camping site.

This project is about designing a portable camping kitchen which will enable to prepare a meal for two persons, who are camping partners.

Naturistic and eco friendly was the concept I got and inspired by bamboo tree and ancient Korean bags.

PROJECT SUMMARY The ability for a human to function in this world depends on the size and measurements of the human body itself in relation to its surrounding environment. Therefore, when designing the built environment or objects for human use, it is essential to take into consideration the measurements of the human body or body parts concerned. Planning and designing spaces and objects that can be accessed and manipulated by human beings without difficulty makes up for a healthy and fulfilling life experience, and as designers and manipulators of space, architects need to possess a good understanding of how a space functions compared to the human body and its movements.

And we had to study over who we are and found actual needs for re-design own bedrooms. The study of the measurement of human body, its proportions and movements.

It is also concerned with parameters such as reach and visual range capabilities. The relationship of the human body, its proportions and movements to the surrounding environment. Ergonomics are important in terms of designing spaces and objects that can

be used efficiently and safely by the user. According to the project re-designed own bedroom.

Graphical Representation of a Concept

Duration

08th of March 2022– 08th of April 2022

PROJECT SUMMARY This Project is about analysing and understanding a character, arriving at a concept and representing it through a 2D representative graphic and a 3D representative object design.

In the days of the Sinhala kings having a royal jester at the Court was a tradition. The job of this royal jester was to keep everyone at the court including king and queen, members of the royal family, courtiers and others entertained and make them laugh. Apart from this they also played tricks on those at the court. Among the royal jesters Sri Lankan kings had, the most famous and well-known jester was Andare, who is a living legend among Sri Lankans even today. And some suggests that Andare was an imaginary character created by intellects who geared at pointing out the lack of intelligence and vanity of society through the stories.
