Element: |
3 Communicate concepts or ideas through application of design processes to 3D forms |
Performance Criteria: |
3.1 Investigate and reflect on how a particular concept or idea might be communicated in 3D form 3.2 Select materials, tools and equipment relevant to the realisation of the concept or idea 3.3 Apply a creative design process to produce a range of 3D concept realisations 3.4 Reflect on own application of design process and success in communicating the concept or idea 3.5 Seek and obtain feedback from others about the 3D form and its success in communicating the concept or idea 3.6 Present and store concept realisations or samples in a format which takes account of the need for professional presentation and the work’s potential value for future jobs |
Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this course, you will have developed and applied the skills and knowledge required to demonstrate your competency in the above elements.
Details of Learning Activities
This course will be clustered with the course ARCH5213C Research & recommend furniture and ARCH5218C Kitchen Design delivered using a blended approach in the following
modes:
In Class activities will include:
• Lectures
• Peer teaching and class presentations
• Teacher directed group activities/projects
• Analysis/critique of relevant reading material
• Creative thinking techniques
• Construction of models
Out of Class activities will include:
• Online research
• Independent project based work
Self Directed Learning
Some activities will include a self directed learning approach; self directed learning refers to organised
activities that students undertake independently, either as individuals or with other students that are
supervised by a teacher. This may include workplace research, library assignments, field trips and work
placements.

Overview of Assessment
This may include not only scheduled classes or workplace visits but also the amount of effort required to undertake, evaluate and complete all assessment requirements, including any non classroom activities.
Assessment for this course will be project based.
Assessment Tasks
Assessment Tasks in this course are either formative or summative.
Feedback throughout the course may be written, verbal or a combination of both.
To demonstrate competency in this course you need to complete each one of the following pieces of
assessment to a satisfactory standard.
Task AT1 - Exploration of 3D Form
This project will explore the 3d form using a White 1:50 Scale Model, exploring natural light and site. Using your visual diary to explore space within the brief.
There will be 3 separate components of this project that you will be graded on :
- Research information on 3D Design
- Building Dog Model
- SketchUp Digital Model
- Working Model 1:50 Scale
Task AT2 - Loose Concept
This project will explore the 3d form using a White 1:50 Scale Model, exploring natural light and site. Using your visual diary to explore space within the brief.
There will be 3 separate components of this project that you will be graded on :
- A3 Visual diary
- Floor Plans and Section (non rendered)
