Site design: Team work - FINAL WORK

I love the task I am participating in! Our group members decided to go to a minimalistic approach, no photographs, not too much words to say, just silhouettes and a strong graphic style.. :) In this two sheets I aim to show how the viewpoints and the scale shange across the line.
And the final presentation came, which was intense and interesting. I mostly learnt how to work with more than one person, which was really useful. Our tutors always try to involve us in colaborations, which they say is really important. I quite respect everyone's work. It was amazing, love the film by Alex and Julian.
My part of the group work:

Site design: Linear experience: Team work Stage

I was meant to work on the Viewpoints, my initial idea was to produce a very good drawing of every landmark along the line. However group's views are about the minimalistic approach, and I had to change it. No I am working on the outlines, to be minimalistic, yes recognizible and symbolic. Interesting :)




















Site design: 'Colaboration' from postnote

Its was an interesting task - to produce an A4 sheet, designing a garden from a postnote, following the design idea of your partner. Challenging..

Visual Studies: Artistbook project

Another challenge came from the Visual Studies course leaders, at the begining of the second term we had to sign up for a six week course, choosing between six different kinds of project- an artistbook, film making, animation making, public interventions etc. I chosed to create an Artistbook, because I quite like the course leader - Caroline Isgar, quite an inspirational woman. I am presenting my unfinished work of the book here. My original idea is to create something huge, not traditional, inspired by the concept of minimalism. However I changed my mind, yes it will be a minimalistic piece as far as possible. It will be a deck of cards, huge A3 size cards, not a traditional ones either. The idea actually is not completelly clear but I am uploading here some rough ideas and drafts:









Site design: Designers and artists project

For this project we were given a list with designers, artists and landscape architects and we had to choose one of them to be our 'mentor' during the second term. We had to do a in depth reasearch about the chosen artist and present him to our coursemates, and to draw inspiration from him. I wanted to challenge myself and that is why I chose Issey Miyake, a japanese fashion designer, famous for his contemporary designs and new techniques he has invented in the textile production field. It was an interesting project despite the difficulties understanding him.

Visual Studies Term1: Panorama of the winter garden

We did this panorama at the begining of the course, but I forgot to upload it earlier. It was an amazing task, and I was told that my result was really successful.. What do you think ? :}

Site Design: Linear experience

The begining of the new term, came to us with a completely different experience, a new programme , new approach etc. It was a walk starting from Primrose Hill, ending at Horse Garden Memorial. During the walk we had to express the linear experience by means of sketches, photographs etc. All different interpretations were welcome. Here is mine (:
