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................
