DESA1002 'Nine Quarter City' - <Shaoze Yin>

Abstract

This semester I learned really a lot of things, the project of 9quarter city really bond the group together; it is just like a pre-exercise of the designing in functions of a building as well as having a good communication and presentation with the clients in the future. This semester, I think I have made progress in understanding of construction material, method, details to be concerned, and in communication, I have learned and can certainly use some of the computer software to draw and construct model building, 2D and 3D drawings, which I think it is a fatal skill that will play an important role in all my studies and also, future career. Also, I found great interesting in the history of architectural development happened in mainly Europe. Be seeing different styles of buildings did help me in the development of inspiration when I took my trail in the design of the museum. Also, environment studies is another key that link the relative areas in architectural studies, all the natural issues is like fresh air to me that knocks my head and takes me to a different level when I consider things. I realized it is not easy to study architecture, there are too many things to take into consideration, it is not like kindergarten stuff, it is a deal with real things, certain circumstance, decent people and specific time period. Little tricks and stupid imagination can not lead me to decent work, it need time and patience, hard work and research. But, the more difficult the target is, the more interesting it will be. People say, a genius is made of 99% hard work and 1% intelligence, but I think, he also need passion and curiosity, I am sure I do have the latter ones, and I will do my best in the next semester.
