DESA1002 'Continuous City' Yu Huang

Abstract

I have experienced interesting but hard study in design studio module this semester. I have tried my best to show my idea and creativity on my project. According to observing, learning, exploring, I developed the skills and knowledge gained to achieve my objectives of study. My design in a complex international urban context, Tokyo, is advanced through a series of iterations with an emphasis on practical experimentation at a range of scales and in a range of media. My design is designed on the concept of amalgamation of nature and human being. The design of the zoo is modern and different with the traditional zoo. The function is not only for people’s relaxation but also for the protection of the nature. People can relax in the garden and release the stress from the daily life, at the same time, the zoo enable people thinking coexist of human and nature. The project is satisfied because it can combine with the Tokyo urban context and present my idea and creativity. My work is drawn together into a final presentation comprising a crafted model and panels of drawings. However, I slacked off and did not achieve a satisfied result sometimes. There are many shortages on my work. And as a international student, there are still some difficulties during the study. I have tried my best to work at final presentation and portfolio to repair and achieve a better representation.
