Precedent and Analysis Part A
In this module consist of only one project work with 3 parts.This project focuses on investigating historical works to enrich architectural design and ideas,through the study of existing buildings.
In a group of 5 or 6 we are required to conduct precedent study analysis on agiven specific building through an online discussion forum.This precedent study analysis clarifies the research question of why that specific building is historically,culturally and architectural importance;and how the design concepts derived from that particular building can be developed to be innovatively intergrated into other projects.
Task assigned
1.What is the function or purpose of the building?
2.How the function or purpose of the building makes the building historically significant and meaningful?
Precedent Study & Analysis Sketches Presentation & Analysis Report Part B
In this project, students are required to do precedent study and analysis sketches that consist of illustrative and abstractive diagrams, drawings and text. The drawings should include actual and conceptual design ideas of floor plans, building sections, analysis diagrams and sketches expressing clarity and in-depth investigation of the precedent studies. The research done are to be drawn on A4 drawing papers only and strictly hand-drawn and hand-written. We are required to find as much information on your assigned building as possible.It has to provide an in-depth analysis of the building and provide thorough reflections of the questions listed in the subsequent section. The building that we are suppose to work on is still basillica church of St Denis .
Analysis
1.Architectural historical timeline sketches.
2.Comparative analysis with the before and after architectural style.
3.Technology development and advancement.
Analysis Presentation Board Part C
In this project, students are required to porduce a presentation board consist of illustrative and abstractive diagrams, drawings and text. The drawings should include actual and conceptual design ideas of floor plans, building sections, analysis diagrams and sketches expressing clarity and in-depth investigation of the precedent studies. The analysis presentation board should be on an A2 board only and strictly hand-drawn and hand-written. The info on the board should be in-depth analysis of the building and also research done and written in the report above.
Analysis should include : Circulation Analysis
i. Circulation to Use-Space,
ii. Natural ventilation
iii. horizontal & vertical Circulation
