[A2 |  STRUCTURE AND BODY.]

​

In Project 2, students collaborate in groups to design and construct a 1:1 structure using bamboo as the primary material in a dormant green space. The project involves understanding bamboo's characteristics, construction principles, and exploring joints, joinery, and structural aspects, incorporating additional materials such as rope, steel, and tensile fabric. Building on architectural elements and principles from Project 1, the design process includes workshops, tests, and investigations, considering anthropometry and ergonomics. Objectives encompass raising awareness of anthropometry and ergonomics in relation to form and space, providing a basic understanding of structure, design principles, and architectural terminologies, and showcasing the impact of architectural design on space and users. Tasks involve researching materials, studying anthropometrics and ergonomics, amalgamating design intent based on elements and principles, creating scaled models and prototypes, constructing the 1:1 bamboo structure, and presenting the final model with orthographic drawings through a verbal presentation with video recording.
