I started this week beginning to work on my section drawing for the community centre drafting what I would want it to look like in 3D and came up with the following ... After designing this I remembered that design doesn't just have to be aesthetically pleasing and senses such as sound and touch can also be incorporated.   Potvin, J., Marchand, M.-È., & Beaulieu, B. (2023).  The senses in interior design: Sensorial expressions and experiences . Manchester University Press. Using the fact that everything doesn't always have to be perfect it reminded me of a trip I went on to Berlin in which I went to a gallery in which the art work was removed due to vandalism however the paint etc was left in its place on display. This is a prime example of work evolving within the space. Following this I thought how spaces could evolve with uses for example the remains of the Berlin Wall now holds many images and graffiti which means something that used to separate different parts of...

 This week we continued working on the group poster in the studio trying to find ways in which we could be cohesive whilst still having independent areas, we decided that we should all work within the area of the garden/courtyard meaning that if I wanted to do the bathrooms when id have to find a way to move these outside to work with everyone else's schemes. throughout the day there was some animosity within the group due to different methods of working however eventually these were overcome by communicating. we found out that a lot of our ideas and plans were all somehow linked to anti anti- hostile designs and the theory of making things comfortable and making people want to spend time in an area including those that may not have somewhere else to go.  people want to provide a sense of solidarity to those suffering from the growing issue and aim to call out the injustice of governmental policy surrounding homelessness.” Therefore, in many ways, the discussion around Hostile...

This week although we had no lecture my group and I spent some time in both the photography and design studios and taking a trip to Fratton in order to take some measurements and do some different types of insufficient mappings, drawings and scans, to make a start on our poster/section and take photos of our objects.  Rhythm, for Lefebvre, is something inseparable from  understandings of time, in particular repetition. It is found in the workings of our towns and cities, in urban life and movement through space. Equally, in the collision of natural biological and social timescales, the rhythms of our bodies and society, the analysis of rhythms provides a privileged insight into the question of everyday life. Lefebvre takes a number of themes – the thing, the object, life in the urban or rural environment, the role of media, political discipline and the notion of dressage, and music, among others – and rethinks them through the notion of rhythm. Lefebvre, H. (2004).  Rhyth...
