As seen in the Salon de la Princess, the structure of the room has virtually been covered up by white walls of wood and mirrors, and it only contains hints

accepted. In architecture realm, it has become an important instrument in both design process and in the everyday operation of buildings and the city. After all, the current revolution is not just about the computer as a tool, but about its role in architecture design. Nowadays, the world is experiencing variety of new built environment with sophisticated forms as a result of this technological movement. Also, with the interaction between the computational development in architecture and the contemporary

Does an architect’s ego get in the way of sensible design? Does it? Does an architect have an ego? Well what is ego for that matter? “Ego: A person’s sense of self-esteem or self-importance” (oxford Dictionary) this is a very tame definition, most people will agree when saying that the definition of ego is in fact the arrogant part of you that in some ways makes you think you are superior or the less cynical of us would like to say an ego is the autopilot of the mind, it’s the thing that one does

Today is the day you'll find out that I would want to pursue a career in construction in the soon to come future. After researching, I came to realize that construction working could suit me job-wise in the future. No matter how risky being a construction worker may be, I know I could find closure doing the job, just knowing the things I will break down will soon be built back up in a better condition for whoever may reside there. To become a construction worker in the future, this website I found

was born in Switzerland on October 6th, 1887 and died in France on August 27th, 1965. Corbusier was known for his minimalist designs and theoretical implementations to his designs. Corbusier uses what he titles it to be the “five points of a new architecture” and in these points, it is clear to see that Corbusier prioritises aesthetics over function. Laurie Baker was born in England on March 2nd, 1917 and died in India on April 1st, 2007. Baker looked at both technical and aesthetic qualities equally

pollution and wastes, while increasing the well-being of the occupants. This paper is an effort to understand the importance of building materials’ selection in sustainable design and the place of traditional materials in the contemporary sustainable architecture. Building activity rapidly consumes finite resources and uses energy-intensive materials, while the construction demand increases. In order to meet the future needs, we need to switch to more

it is important that part of an architect to practise practical solutions that brings advantage of the existing urban assests in a smart and sustainable way. Although an architect alone could not maintain a sustainable urban regeneration from an architecture perspective, the role of an architect may contribute to a sustainable urban regeneration projects. From my

personal project I have decided to conquer this quote for my success in this model, “If you focus on design, you can call yourself a designer. If you focus on the implementation of your design, you can call yourself an architect”.(Cameron Sinclair, Architecture for Humanity) Before I begin my construction work, I need to know basic steps of an architectural - model building. So I Came up with some research questions that would help me throughout this project. What I needed to research: What
