INTRODUCTION

All objects that man creates are either shapes or forms, and the creation involves various elements and principles of design. A shape, be it geometrical or free-form, is a 2D area that is defined in some way by line, space, value, colour or a combination of these. Counterpart to shape, form is a 3D object that has dimension or volume. Shapes like triangles or squares can develop into forms such as cones and cubes with the addition of depth. On the other hand, space is the element that refers to the emptiness within or around the objects, and it can be either positive or negative. In this sense, the shapes and forms are called the positive space, or the ‘figure’, while the empty spaces around shapes and forms are called negative spaces, or the ‘ground’. In built environment, the objects created can be both stand-alone or connected, and functional or non-functional; while the space produced can be both habitable or unhabitable. A sculpture for instance, although is normally considered as unhabitable and non-functional object, but it is a signifant feature for interior and landscape design. In some extent, this non-functional object has inspired many outstanding forms of functional objects, like the ‘Pucuk Rebung’ sculpture for the Menara Telekom building.

OBJECTIVES

§  To improve students’ ability in applying suitable elements and principles of design in producing a functional structure.
§  To expose the students to the challenges of designing a small structure that is a result of a connection or combination of two or more objects.
§  To improve students’ skills in developing and communicating the ideas through conceptual scale model making.
§  To enhance students’ ability in designing a creative form of object and space with the understanding of human physiology, ergonomic and comfort factors based on basic technical knowledge

TASKS & REQUIREMENTS

Project 3b: Objects Connection: A ComforTABLE CHAIR

§  In group of 3, students are required to produce a structural model of a wooden L-shape seating object that combines a table and chair(s) (students are free to design and decide the form of each chair/sofa/table/desk)
§  Besides aesthetical factors, students should also consider the function of the furniture as an outdoor comfortable resting spot for HBP community and visitors (as it will be placed near the HBP pond-waterfall).
§  The size of that L-shape seating object should not be more than 2.8m x 2.0m x 1.2m (length x width x height) dimension.
§  The theme of that seating object is ‘UNITY’, but each group is free to choose their specific concept that is relevant to the stipulated theme.
§  The scale of the model is 1:5 and there is no restriction in colours and materials to be used for the model construction) (new or recycled materials)
§  Each group should include (freehand) written statement to describe about their model design (on the suitable empty spaces next to the L-Shape model) and the title of the project (Objects Connection), the name of each group members, their majors, and the number of main group & studiomasters (on the bottom right of the mounting board)
§  The model is to be permanently attached to the A2 size mounting board as its base.






LOOK at our COMFORTABLE chair..tHIS IS our DESIGN.....










Nice right...Huhu................
