Introduction
DESIGNING WITH ARCHITECTURAL PRINCIPLES + MATERIALITY
Project 2. Tropical Rainforest Discovery Platform
Our main task in this assignment is to generate and craft Tropical Rainforest Discovery Platform that has spatial
experience, with a maximum volume of 125 m3. We are required to use the architectural principles from the first assignment; to explore conceptual and operational procedures in order to produce a significant gesture of architectural spaces. The architectural principles that we have selected will need us to define them. We have to explore the potential meanings and implications of this architectural principles in the sense that it will inform two areas: generating forms and crafting spaces.
