Design Discovery 2018 - Day 5- Perception Unit
On day 5, campers learned about perception relating to architecture and had fun constructing glasses to test their newly learned skills.
Design Discovery 2018 - Day 5 - Chair Review
Students presented and tested their cardboard chair designs from Day 4. Some chairs were sturdier than others, but all were very good ideas.
Design Discovery 2018 - Day 4 - Cardboard Chair Project
On day four, Design Discovery campers were challenged to make a cardboard lounge/table device that supported at least one person from the team as well as perform one other task determined by the group. Students spent the day designing and constructing their chairs.
Design Discovery 2018 - Day 3 - Perspective Sketching
Students learned about drawing and perspective and then spread out to apply their new skills by drawing different locations inside Giles Hall. They were to focus on the aspect of perspective drawings to capture a 3-dimensional space in a 2-dimensional drawing, and use detail drawings to focus closely on how things are built/constructed.
Design Discovery 2018 - Day 2 - Instant Environment
After sketching initial designs on Day 1, the students now apply their knowledge to build their creations. These “Instant Environments” are made from canvas, twine (hemp and nylon), and locally harvested bamboo.
Design Discovery 2018 - Day 1 – Sketching Instant Environment
On Day 1, the campers jumped into modeling and sketching ideas for the Instant Environment Project. This is a good ice-breaker and encourages group interaction.
