Project 1:Children’s Outdoor Playscape
In this introductory exercise, we are to design within a given area of area of 5m(l) x 5m(w) x 3m(ht), an OUTDOOR PLAYSCAPE for children that is modular, lightweight as well as safe with all mechanisms being simple and easy to operate. The main materials for its construction are reclaimable/repurposed materials and reasonably weather proof. It must be able to accommodate/support a set of proposed activities designed to instill among children not only a sense of play or exploration but also the appreciation of sustainability through the application of reusable materials. We also have to demonstrate its ability to function in a real world situation.

Project 2: COMMUNITY RECYCLING, REPURPOSING & RECLAIMING CENTER
The project calls for a design of a COMMUNITY RECYCLING, REPURPOSING AND RECLAIMING CENTER in a suburban park area with some complexity that includes the complexity of site topography and vegetation and existing activities. We are required to provide full design proposal incorporating precedent study and site analysis at appropriate level of presentation. It explores design solution that responds to the program, context of the site and conditions for human and environment sustainability. We explore design solutions that reduce environmental impact utilizing clustered spatial typology and passive energy. The design should contribute to and merge harmoniously with nature and the site, and provide the best of experiences for the users.
