[Studio3] Project 1A & 1B : Journey of the 5 senses

The main objective of Project 1A is to identify and analyze spatial order and spatial poetics through precedent studies. The main aim is to analyse 2 selected architectural precedents and analyse the spatial poetics & spatial typology of the selected precedents. The group consisting of 5 students, select 2 precedents for analysis , one being pre-modern and the other being contemporary with the spacial typology of linear and concentric.



Villa Foscari, Pre-modern, Concentric Typology





Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Contemporary, Linear Typology




Project 1B is a continuous project from Project 1A, and requires the group to design a walk themed ‘journey for the five senses’ based on a chosen poem.



The Wall

The wall devilishly grey; 
I made it myself; so strong, so high. 
Neither could I break nor could I fly; 
Not a wall of brick or stone, 
Made of intangibles- 
Fear, despair, angst; 
Left me cloaked in a darkness infinite

I perish here of 
desolation, not 
stronger enough to 
shatter the wall, and let 
the light shower my soul.

The soul craves for 
the hallowed ray, for 
someone to crush the 
wall into dust, 
set me free, 
show me the light.
