Project 1: Memorials

For the first project of Design Studio 3, we were assigned to do precedent studies and design a Sabah Earth Quake Memorial and a Rohingya Crisis Memorial.

After we decided to choose Holocaust Museum and Santa Costanza for the spatial typology studies, we done research on the spatial qualities and poetic。

From the precedent studies, we applied what we learnt to design memorials for Sabah earth quake and Rohingya Crisis.

In this assignment, I learnt how a journey can be applied in linear building or even concentric buildings. It helps me to understand about poetics of architectures and spatial qualities. These qualities are the elements that is important to the environment around and inside the memorial. From here, I learnt to design memorial spaces and architecture elements.
