Introduction
In project 1, students were allowed to express oneself through their creative means; Project 2 on
the other hand is meant to prepare students to be aware on the relationship between user and
space, emphasizing on anthropometrics & ergonomics; Project 3 on the other hand incorporates
both the creativity and its functionality; identity of user, comfortability of user and creativity in
articulating the space
Students are required to design a space for you by attaching it to the walls/surfaces of an imagined
‘city’ on an empty abandoned lot in between two buildings. The space is to fit the specific needs of
the user (as a hideout space for viewing, transitional space, space for dreaming, space showcasing
hobbies or collections and so to speak a getaway space for the user who wants to be alone), space
that best fits the personality, occupation and character of the person that the user you are
designing for.
The user will be pre-selected, 32 prominent personalities in the field of entertainment, sports,
politics, arts, science and others; each possessing distinct qualities from tall, physically
handicapped, nature lover, art collector, singer, dancer, loud, bold and others.

These challenges are to be architecturally translated into a space that successfully establishes the
quality of the interior and articulation of exterior. Concept shall evidently show the experiential and
spatial quality. Students are also to consider how design is to be attached and harmonize with the
two existing buildings (may show massing design of two buildings). Additional considerations
should also be given to human scale and dimensional requirements.
The Project will be divided into two major stages: one as continuous studio exercise which
comprises of Project’s 3a & 3b, 3a: Narrative & Storytelling’ and 3b: Design Exploration (Interim
Submission); second Project 3- Final project submission & presentation. Student in this project will
demonstrate understanding of their chosen user thru research after which show the process how
this understanding is translated to spatial and form concept & design thru sketches and study
models. Project 3 involves presentation of the final design thru A-2 Panel board presentation and
model.
Objectives of Project
The objectives of this assignment are as follows:
1. To further the students ability to create and develop a conceptual narrative.
2. To introduce and create awareness in understanding the dimensional requirements of the
human body (anthropometrics and ergonomics).
3. To explore and apply basic design principles and terminologies.
4. To further the student’s ability to create and develop a conceptual narrative
5. To be able to consider objective and subjective parameters in the design process to create
a space this is practical yet poetic.
6. To explore how the selection and application of materials in relation to the sensory
experience of space.
7. To be able to select and make different study models (sketch, concept, diagram, section
and development models)
Learning Outcomes of this Project
1. Generate design concept/idea and translate into simple (architectural) design.
2. Generate design through the process of sketching and model-making.
3. Document, sketch and explain from personal experiences of the built and natural
environment
4. Apply the understanding of basic architectural design principles, and the notion of body
and space interactions.
5. Maximize utilization of sketching, study modelling and other preliminary design tools going
through the process-oriented approach in developing designs.
6. Produce a well-organized, systematic and creative graphical presentation through a well-
drawn and executed two-dimensional form (plans, elevations and sections), three-
dimensional form (sectional perspective, axonometric and perspective) and scale
modelling.
7. Prepare and enhance student’s verbal communication and presentation skills. All three
projects are to be external assessors.

Design Guidelines
- Application and exploration of basic design principles and materials in creating spatial
qualities to capture narrative and storyline.
- Choose and understand the character and personality that you have selected. Character is
to be from pre-selected lists. List includes fashion designers, product designers,
celebrities, models, sports figure, political figure and others.
- Several questions shall be looked into in the development of the ‘Dream space for the
User’, here are some guiding questions: How does the body shape the space? How does
the space influence the mood and its activities, how does material engage the senses?
And how do the senses determine the choice of materials?
- Student will be required to design a space (multiple use) with a gross floor area of 50-
70 sq.m and a height 10.0m high elevated 3.0 meters from the ground (refer to Site
Plan & elevation for exact dimensions).
- Hideout should not occupy more than 70% of the site.
- Should incorporate design elements and principles of design; emphasis on scale,
hierarchy, proportion, harmony and character.
- The design should either attached with at least one of the two existing buildings, or
possibly both walls of the two buildings.
Submission Requirements
Project 3b: Interim Submission (Narrative Writing & Design Exploration)
June 8, 2015
Poster type (Butter Paper) should fit concept and design approach
- May use Diagrams, image maps to avoid lengthy texts.
- Should clearly stipulate the user’s information (biography), activities,
personality, occupation, needs, desires and likes.
June 22, 2015 (Mock up presentation)
A2- Butter Paper or A-2 Board in pencil (Scale 1:50)

occupation, needs, desires and likes.
- Sketches of drawings and studies.
- Diagram showing effective consideration for Anthropometrics.

the 2 buildings)
Interior Perspective (s) (most interesting area or areas) or Axonometric View

The final model shall clearly show design of form & interior space. Consider correct
dimensions of materials (such as wall thickness, door height and others) and furniture’s.
The final model should sit on site. Building beside can be shown in massing form and a
partial of it only to focus more ‘Hide out’ which will be done in details (material, texture &
design).
Note: To include Site and 2 buildings.
