ARCH1101-2013 Andrea Harrison: EXP 2 - Assessment Criteria and Feedback on Student Work

THE TWO CONCEPTS_ Do the two concepts suggest a distinctive and significant approach to engaging with each architect?

THE 18 SKETCH AXONOMETRICS_ Do the 18 sketch axonometric's communicate a distinctive and significant approach the student has taken with respect to each hypothesis and their possible relationship to the space between?

THE 36 CUSTOM TEXTURES_ Do the 36 custom textures demonstrate enquiry and experimentation with respect to ideas of light and shadow?

THE LANDFORM_ Does the landform demonstrate a distinctive and significant approach to bringing students of Architecture, Architectural Computing and Engineering together?

THE IMAGE CAPTURES AND ARCHITECTURE_ Do the image captures demonstrate that the student has thought about the relative size of each rectangular element, what their proportions are, their orientation, how texture, colour and shadow map over their surfaces and how all of the above work together to establish the balance or otherwise of their scheme?

Please note that Russell has written "rectangular element" - thus you should stick to rectangular prisms for this assignment please. Though I don't mind if you want to skew them, ie. not have them all placed at right angles to each other.

Design:
This should be a reponse to the brief, which is for:
1) An architecture that monumentalises the two concepts as well as the Architects who created, developed or challenged them – Does the architecture you've created look MONUMENTAL as compared to residential, commercial etc? Does it convey the CONCEPTS and the ARCHITECTS (you should write a few lines about HOW this is conveyed through your architecture)

2) The monuments will exist in a landscape that you create to both locate and separate them - How well do your monuments sit in the landscape? Is there communication between both monuments? How does a student navigate around the landscape to access both monuments and the meeting place?

3) The space between the monuments on the landform is a place for students of Architecture, Architectural Computing and Engineering with Architecture to meet and exchange ideas – Is your meeting place of sufficient size to accommodate all students at any one time? Is there opportunity for shelter at the meeting place?

4) The landform should allow these students to arrive at their meetings in a distinctive and significant way – Are paths of travel, circulation between monuments / meeting place / arrival points clearly indicated?
