Final brief!

I have been waiting for this day a long time now! Can't believe it is actually here now..so what is the final brief? We have to create some kind of public space or feature where our route from town meets our site. We can do what ever we wish within reason! This should be interesting for sure, i wonder what i will choose to do! i wanna get stuck in straight away...

Going to liverpool!!!!

Found out recently that we are going to go to Liverpool for "work", yea right mate! This should be fun..but need to make sure i do all my work as well, cant get too carried away!

Brighton: from the station to the sea...

This is part of the work that i done for the Project at Brighton. I took loads of pictures along my route from the station to the sea..from this i used some in photoshop to see what kinds of effects i could achieve..i like it very much.

This is a small selection of the photos that i chose to do, but i feel that these are the most effective. This was a digital project so this kind of work was completely appropriate..In addition to this, instead of having a normal map from the station to the sea i done a 3D one on rhino with raised buildings and an animation..unfortunately for me i do not know how to upload these..

History and Culture essay..

Well i had to hand in my history essay today..cant believe i didn't get the books for the reading earlier! stupid me left it thinking that the library is going to be open over the Christmas and new year period, what was i thinking! Anyway i done it all on the last day :) was up till 7 in the morning finishing it, and it was due at 9! I do not wanna do that again! But i think my essay was well written, guess im going to have to wait and see what happens!

Skills Presentation...

This is just a small taster of my group presentation for Skills, i was pretty worried about this presentation as well, because it was due to be infront of some of the Architecture students not just Landscape..However i feel that even thought we missed one group member through illness we did a good job!

Kew Gardens visit!!!!

It was pretty cold when we visited Key Gardens, i didn't like that aspect of things! However i enjoyed the area itself a lot, and even though i live so close to it i had never been. It was a very good experience for me as i observed a lot when i was there and learnt of a lot of different plants! The different parts that they were trying to restore to their natural state was also interesting for me. I found it aesthetically pleasing and wouldn't mind going back.

So what did i come up with...

Unfortunately i do not have any pictures of my design, my camera has decided to act stupid! But ill try my best to describe it to you..I felt i needed to design a square that fulfilled several things, a place for people to walk without disruption or hassle, an area that people can embrace on their breaks and any other time really, and to have an area that was a nice sight! I feel i fulfilled my brief..I used the 5 sense aspect to make 5 capsules that are based around each sense! The textures, smells...set each one apart. Together with this there was an elevated area that let people walk around the square without being disturbed or annoyed!
