CRITICAL
REVIEW OF PREVIOUS COMPLETED PROJECT
SPATIAL
DESIGN OF CONTEXT
This is a critical review of a
previously completed project called Spatial Design of Context in Level 4. The review is based on 7 from the 24 criteria which i consider to be relevant to my project's basis/context, skills/ activity, creativity/quality of the outcome.
Experience
of design research, analysis & synthesis:
·
Through
out this project I significally improved my experience and skills on design
research as we had investigated for an architect and analyzed his house
technical drawings and design in order to design our house. This knowledge is
important to me as a learner because for every new project I will have to
research first and then design.
Visualizing/ Prototyping skills &
aptitudes in a range of media & formats:
·
In
Spatial Design of Context project we had to visualizing our house design. By
using Sketch up and Photoshop I made the visual drawings of my house design in
3D on how it will look like in reality. From this part I have developed my
knowledge and skills on visualizing my designs.
Aptitude for design through a digital
platform:
·
In
the process of designing our house we create a portfolio of technical drawings
and visuals. During the project I had improved my skills on drawing technical
drawings on CAD like floor plans, sections and elevations. At this time having
experienced this I’m feeling more experienced on design through a digital
platform and I believe this skill will be useful to me as a practitioner
because I will need it in everything I will design.
Experience of design process &
methodologies:
·
During
Spatial Design of Context project last year I have improved and developed my
experience of design process and methodologies. For me the most useful aspect
was organized my project in different parts and finished each point after the
other. For example first I started my architect research and then I applied the
architectural principles on my technical drawings and visuals and this leaded
to my final design. Having implied this technique I now feel that I can run
through a design process more efficiency.
Experience of
managing client relationships & Collaboration:
·
The
project mention to design an urban house for a young professional couple. Their
jobs are also mentioned in the brief. By giving to us the clients I tried to
design a house that would suite to their needs. Through this part I have
experienced to managing client relationships and I believe this understanding
will be essential to me as practitioner as in the future I will design basing
on clients needs.
Experience and understanding of
legislation & regulations:
·
Every
designer should know about legislation and regulation when designing a house.
In this project I realized and learned to design according to regulations and
legislations. For example we had to
design the house in specific measurement on the site and the house needed to
have a maximum height and width. Having applied these rules I now know that I
should design using regulations and legislations.
Experience of design practice
marketing and promotion:
·
When
I finished my final house design I created a client board with visual and
technical drawing on it to give an idea to my clients the house will look like
in reality. Over this project I learned how marketing and promotion work. For
example in order to promote my design I created that client board with color
and visual In order to be attractive and interesting to client eyes. I believe
that marketing and promotion is very important to me as interior designer as I
have to promote my design to my clients.
