ARC 3127 Architecture Design Project
UPCYCLING ARTIST RESIDENCE
The final studio that forms the cap stone project of the 3 year course.
Project 1 A - Developing an Architectural Position and Project
Emphasizing on (1) the broad theme of sustaining humanities and (2) resolution of architectural design.
The objectives of this assignment are: to develop a simple brief for an architectural design project and conduct pre-design analysis to inform the design project. In this part of the project students are required to conduct and present the following pre-design analysis:
1. Studies of the contextual condiitons of the site
2. Studies on the selected user group and builidng types.
3. Studies on precedents that inform the ideas/ approach/ strategies underlying the design project.
The chosen site is SS2 durian corner, on which we would have to design with the theme of 'upcycling'

Project 1 C - Detailed Design
Subsequent to Project 1 B - Design Strategy and Sketch Design phase, students are required to develop environemntal strategies and technological resolutions with the main intent to stregthen their design exploration/ ideas, and complement the design through a comprehensive design report. This project is also integrated with Building Technology 2 Project 2.
Objective: - to bring together an understanding of the holistic nature of the architectural design process, to a given degree of detail, with emphasis on design as an integrative process, drawing as appropriate on previous subjects of the program.
Learning Outcomes : - Produce design development drawings with suitable level of complexity
- Design with considerations of building performance (thermal comfort, acoustic and lighting), regulatory frameworks, health and safety considerations.
- Produce drawings (both 2D and 3D), modelling, verbal presentation and a design report to
communicate and visualize architectural design and ideas.
