DESIGN COMMUNICATION SEMESTER 1: ASSIGNMENT 13: MODEL MAKING

For this assignment we were taught on the method of producing a model based on a specified skill. Referring to a plan and elevation of a house from our lecturer, we were required to produce a model of it in a group of 4. Then, the model is to be taken photo of and composed in a layout, with the same title "My Dream House" as the previous assignment.

DESIGN COMMUNICATION SEMESTER 1: ASSIGNMENT 12: PRESENTATION LAYOUT

For this assignment we were taught on the basics of producing a presentation layout. The requirement for this assignment is to produce a layout with the basic title of "My Dream House". This assignment is also a test in our abilities to render with markers.

DESIGN COMMUNICATION SEMESTER 1: ASSIGNMENT 11: ONE-POINT AND TWO-POINT PERSPECTIVE

This assignment we were taught on one-point and two-point perspective. We were required to draw a grid for each of the perspectives and also to include 6 blocks in the grid. This is to enable us to understand on how the perspective works when dealing with a drawing with a set scale.

DESIGN COMMUNICATION SEMESTER 1: ASSIGNMENT 10: OBLIQUE DRAWING

For this assignment we were required to produce an oblique drawing of a shape with plan and elevation provided. We have learned that for an oblique drawing, the angle used from the horizontal plane to the vertical plane can be at 45 degrees at both sides or 30 degrees at one side and 60 degrees at another.

Oblique drawing with 45 degrees angle at both sides.

DESIGN COMMUNICATION SEMESTER 1: ASSIGNMENT 9: ISOMETRIC SKILL TEST

This is our first skill test on isometric drawing. For this, we were given a set amount of time to produce an isometric drawing of an object with only its plan and elevation provided to us.

DESIGN COMMUNICATION SEMESTER 1: ASSIGNMENT 8: PLAN, ELEVATION & SECTION

This assignment is an introduction to producing a plan, elevation and section drawing. The drawings were made using a specific scale according to a reference given to us by our lecturers. Total required to be done for this assignment are 2 plans; ground floor plan and first floor plan, 2 sections; section X-X and section Y-Y (based on the plan), 1 elevation.

DESIGN COMMUNICATION SEMESTER 1: ASSIGNMENT 7: ORTHOGRAPHIC PROJECTION 2

For this assignment, similar to the previous one, we were taught on orthographic projections. However, for this particular assignment, we were required to produce an orthographic projection drawing based on an actual 3D object. The first part of this assignment was to create an orthographic projection drawing based on a block letter given and the second part was to create an orthographic projection drawing based on an object that we can find.

DESIGN COMMUNICATION SEMESTER 1: ASSIGNMENT 6: ORTHOGRAPHIC PROJECTION 1

In this assignment we were taught the basics on orthographic projection. For this, we were taught how to identify a shape based on the plan and elevation of the object.

Basics of orthographic projection.

DESIGN COMMUNICATION SEMESTER 1: ASSIGNMENT 5: WATERCOLOUR PERSPECTIVE

In this assignment we were taught how to use the watercolour media in rendering perspectives. We were given a choice of 3 different perspectives and were required to choose one and render it with the skill that we have learned.

Watercolour rendering on perspective.

DESIGN COMMUNICATION SEMESTER 1: ASSIGNMENT 4: INTERIOR COMPONENTS PERSPECTIVE

In this assignment, we were required to fill in a perspective interior with interior components that we have learned previously and also to fill it with human figures at an appropriate scale depending on the position.

and interior components.

DESIGN COMMUNICATION SEMESTER 1: ASSIGNMENT 1: HATCHING TECHNIQUES

For this assignment we were required to compose a piece of still life drawing using objects that we have available around us, applying only one of the four hatching techniques that were taught. The hatching techniques were; hatching, cross hatching, scribbling and stippling.

Drawing using hatching technique only.

INTRODUCTION TO INTERIOR DESIGN PROJECTS: FINAL PROJECT

The final project for the semester for Introduction to Interior Design Projects, as well as the final review of all our works. The final project was based on the theme survival. We were supposed to design a survival pod for our "client" (a partner we chose from classmates), on Redang Island, as well as creating a scenario for his condition on being stranded on the island.

My story was about my partner being a prisoner, who managed to escape from a ship that was transferring him to a different facility. From there he drifted onto the island where it was uninhabited. There, he found out that there was a demon on the island and the only place that he could be safe was out in the sea. Thus, he built his pod out on the sea. This became my background for the concept of my survival pod.

the creature, the character background,
location, story, and survival gear details.

The interior of survival pod.

The pod was designed with the idea of a clam shell in mind, because I wanted it to be a protective shelter for my partner. And to build the shape and the structure of the pod, I referred to the shape and technology of a coracle (a traditional fishing boat).

Final review of all projects.
