Week 9 -2

The group we have formed was among close friends therefore communicating is not a problem.

The issues that we discuss about are issues concerning the alterations that we would set out to do as well as to appoint the different task to the people within our group.The task was issued jugging by each of our strength and limitations

The alterations are chosen by critiquing and looking through each of our previous assignment to decide which would be the best candidate for this project. The final chosen design was from Justin as we wanted something simple to add on and modify in this project and we thought that the form and plans of Justin's design have the potential to develop into a more dynamic design.

Justin’s initial design

Taken from Justin’s blog which he typed while we were discussing:

With my project being chosen as the building we were modifying, I've witnessed my building being used and tested for various design shapes, notably, by my group mates Kristopher and Saunder. Our ideas generated were very Zaha Hadid-influenced, apparently.
Our design for the modified house is bold, creative, and very complex.

The facades of my complex profile are removed and the building now is at a much larger scale. The deck that protrudes from the house had been removed. Room allocations and spaces have been revised and modified. The curved roofs which made the shape of the initial building, has been further enhanced with more curved and dynamic roofs.

The palettes of materials, primarily timber, have been substituted with concrete, concrete, and more concrete!

As for additions, a customized shape swimming pool has been placed next to the house, with fragments of landscape surrounding the entire house.
