Exercise 5 : Type of Joinery

Last week, BIA semester 3 student pay a 3Days 2Nights visit to Singapore. The purpose of this site visit is to observe closely to some amazing architecture and construction system that might admire students to explore their IDP final project. Not only that, detailing and workings drawings module also required students to explore themselves at Singapore by searching three different type of joinery which are reveted joinery, blot and nuts joinery and welded joinery. We had pay visit to many places at Singapore and I do found some of these joinery there.

 Welded Joinery

Riveted Joinery

Bolt and nut joinery

 Spider web joinery

From this journey, i learn more about how a great building was being constructed. We saw a lot of building that using natural light and natural air ventilation as a sources. The amazing part is the intelligence way the designer and architecture produce a space/building in both natural way and efficient. Most of the building at Singapore are very emphasize nature sources such as light and vegetation. Every where we go, we can always saw threes or plants planted along the street or directly planted on the building itself, such as Nanyang-Poly new building call Bee hive.

That's all, thank you.........

Exercise 4 : Correction for Assembly drawing

In last two week, i was given a new task to explore my learning outcome from the lecture. Students are required to draw an assembly drawing with plan, elevation, section and blow-up detail. The drawing must include the specifications and title block. All the drawing and content must follow the formal assembly drawing method. 

My group( Tan Min Wei, Teo Zhi Ye and Chiang Shu Ling) , we divided the drawing into three parts( drawing -2 person, specification and dimension -2 person ) . After that , we have submitted online . In order for us to remember and justify our own mistakes in the drawing, we have to exchange our drawing with another group. We must made comments to the other group and correct it according to the mistakes they made.

In the redraw drawing , we must redraw it with scale and dimension but not allow to use ruler.

                That's all , thank you....

Exercise 2 : Detail Drawing Specification

In this week lesson, we are about to learn how to write a specification for furniture. The specification is to convey or propose any furniture ( material, finishes ) to the consumer and constructor. Thus, it is very important to able to write down a clear, detail and specific specification for each furniture.
* sizes, length, height and width
* material use
* method of joining, installation
* finishes
* all measurement must be in millimetres(mm) 

That's all , thank you.....

Exercise 1 : Observation of a drafting table

In this module of semester 3, the first task was given by observing a drafting table . Students need to sketch out the drafting table by using felt-tip pen ( 0.05, 0.2, 0.6... ). This is to test our understanding of  observing a chosen object in details. To be a designer, we must learn and able to observe objects in details and understand the mechanism used. Thus, this task was giving us a starting point to try to see things in details and differently. Not just observe the surface of the object but also understand the mechanism applied.

Also, as a starting of a new module, students were also need to design their own cover page of the sketch book.

That's all, thank you....

Project 3 : Listening Booth ( Individual assignment )

In the final project, I had to design a shop lot with specific style given and the music genre followed by the last two project. This shop lot is situated in a KL shopping mall.

Style : Retro

Music : Hiphop

First of all, we need to have a mind map conclude the products, space divided, design elements , colors and so on. It is very important for us to divide our shop lot space before we went to interior design and structure. My shop is mainly sell skateboard ( deck, truck , wheels ) and hiphop musc cd.

It contain a purchasing area, storage, a few display area, workshop and a skateboarding area for consumers to have a try. 

I took about a month to finalize all my plan , section and perspective. After my plan is finalized , mock up model is produced for my tutor to have a clearer information about my shop interior and space divided. During the final, I was asked to produce minimum of 6 A2 presentation board to represent my shop lot. It must contain music and style information, plan, section, perspective and 3D perspective view.

That's all, thank you........

Project 2 : Listening Booth ( Individual assignment )

In this assignment, I was asking to design a compact listening booth that suits the music genre, language and characteristic that best to express the sound. The space must design to suits human activity , behaviour and posing when they listen to the music playing. The area given is 1500mm(L) x 1500mm(W) x 2400mm(HT). This time , it require all our knowledge about the specific music , for mine is Hiphop. How people will behave themself when they listen to the music, how mechanism will work within the space and how the compacity is the space. At first, my design was being said that too big for only one person o fit in so I need to sort out the issue and come out with a whole new and better idea. 

When it come to critique 1 , pin up, I was being told that the understanding of the mechanism is there but he compact is not there yet.

Thus, I change my idea again into a semi-circular shape of wall which divided into two space, sitting space and dancing or standing space.

 One of my mechanism for disc holder is setting up in between the wall for both side to share. To make it move , just need to pull it down / roll it down then it will rolling in between the wall for user to choose they interested disc and play. The sitting area is design with a nesting chair and drawer in the wall itself. The chair isn't just for sitting but also for lying on it. As the drawer is for any user to put their belongings inside it. Where the other side is having a giant speaker box to give all the users the best sound effect when they listen to hiphop music..

Here is a video to show how the mechanism work.....

That's all, Thank you......
