CRAEFT

CRAEFT WAS OUR OVERALL THEME AND STUDY OVER THE YEAR. WITH BROKEN UP PIECES AND PARTS, BIG AND SMALL ASSIGNMENTS, IT ALL CAME BACK TO CRAEFT. CRAEFT- "AN ACTIVITY INVOLVING EXPERT SKILL IN MAKING FUNCTIONAL OBJECTS BY HAND" FIRST SEMESTER WE RESEACRHED AND STUDIED CRAEFT BY STARTING WITH A BASIC MORE SIMPLISTIC PROJECT. WE THEN CREATED A BIRDHOUSE/TEMPORARY RESIDENCE. AND FINALLY ENDED OFF WITH ANOTHER TEMPORARY RESIDENCE PROJECT BUT FOR A DEAN OF A COLLEGE.

BIRDHOUSE PROJECT- SAWYER HOOD

THESE ARE MY EVOLVED FLOOR PLANS AND ONE OF MY ORIGINAL CONSEPT AND PARTI DIAGRAMS AND THE BIRD/MY CLIENT I DESIGNED THE RESIDENCE FOR.

OLD ALTON BRIDGE DEANS RESIDNCE PROJECT

THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROJECT WAS TO DESIGN A RESIDENCE ON A BRIDGE FOR THE DEAN OF A COLLEGE. THE SITE PLAN IN THE BOTTOM LEFT OF THIS PHOTOGRAPH WILL SHOW YOU WHERE MY BUILDING SITS ON THE BRIDGE. THE FLOOR P;AN IN THE TOP RIGHT AND THE ELEVATIONS IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT WILL SHOW YOU THE DESIGN OF MY BUILDING. THE MODEL MADE OUT OF CARDBOARD WAS A SIMPLE DESIGN IDEA I HAD AT THE START OF THE PROJECT, AS YOU CAN SEE I DID NOT CARRY OUT THAT IDEA BUT IT WAS APART OF THE FINAL IDEA SHOWN. THE COLLAGE YOU SEE IN THE TOP LEFT IS SOMETHING WE ALL CREATED TO BETTER CONVEY AND REFLECT AND CORRELATE OUR CLIENTS PERSONALITY AND EMOTIONS. ALSO TO CONVEY OUR BUILDINGS THEME AND PERSONALITY. OVER TO THE LEFT IS AN ORIGINAL UNFINISHED IDEA I HAD FOR A FLOOR PLAN.
