DESIGN STUDIO 4
Project 1: RE: Play – Children’s Outdoor Playscape
Project 1 deals with the understanding of re-purposed materials and their relationship to the crafting of spaces for user experience.We in groups of 3 members are required to design an OUTDOOR PLAYSCAPE for children, which is intended to showcase specific material(s) for a proposed set of activities.
It is to develop awareness of environmental sustainability through the responsible and innovative use of reclaimable and re-purposed materials in relation to user needs. In addition, each group is required to understand the needs a child aged 7 to 12 that will constitute the ‘user’ of the Playscape.
From this project I learned and understand the importance of environmental sustainability in architectural design and also developed the ability to meet the imperative and inter-related environmental and social needs, as well as make poetry with materials and spaces.

Project 2: HOUSE OF LEISURE
This brief proposes a HOUSE OF LEISURE - COMMUNITY RECREATION CENTER. Taking their understanding of the contextual condition of the site and precedent studies as points of departure, students are to come up with intentions, concepts and programs that will then be developed into concrete design proposals that address and respond to the environment and the needs of the community. In addition to the provision of the typical recreational facilities such as swimming pool, sports courts, gymnasium and games rooms, the students are also tasked with proposing other leisure activities – based on their understanding of the context and the communities - and the required spaces as part of the program for the HOUSE OF LEISURE.
From this project i understand the importance of awareness of environmental sustainability in architectural design and the importance of inter-related environmental and social needs, as well as make poetry with the buildings. As well as the emphasize on space planning of clusters of buildings
