Essay : What i learn in RUS 104 Studio

What I have learnt in this lesson? What I have done in this lesson? Or, What lesson did I learnt?

Communication skill is what i learnt and also the problem that I faced the most during this semester rather than only in RUS 104 Studio. In my hometown, Sibu, there are less Malay or India etnic. Even in school, I don't usually mix with them especially a Chinese school. For the 21 years born and live in Malaysia, 2013 is the first year I talk and work together with other race. It was a great challenge for me to cooperate and coordinated in group which comprise of different etnic for not homogeneous any more.

Without a doubt, learn to manage money is one of the "must" in this RUS 104 Studio. We spent plenty of money throughout the lesson. Spending is no more a heavy task for us but how to manage well is the another form of knowledge. Though PTPTN loan is given, but the amount is merely enough for me to carry out my daily activities. Somehow, I need to cut off my budget so that their is no overbudget each month.

Well, maybe learn not to sleep is also a process.

" Everyday woke up in the morning we have two choice:

               One is to go back and continue your dream;

                Other is to woke up and complete what you dream. "

Soon, I always told myself to focus and focus what you are doing at that moment in other to achieve my dreams. 

F          - Fix

O         - On

C         - Course

U         - Until

S         - Sucess

However, due to misunderstanding among members, I quarrel with some of member. This really a negative impact to all of us. Though, there is misunderstanding at first, but we soon come together and work together hoping to produce a product which will proud us all...

Project 5 : Sense of Place : Neighborhood & Community

Existing Condition and Proposed Improvement

Finally comes to a project related to the Urban and Regional Planning.... And.... I will try my best and the best for this. 6 resident site are given for us to choose. Hence, Siara 81 is chosen for me to do the site visit.

In this project, i personally learn many thing such as Site Plan, Layout Plan, Site Inventory and etc. In A2-sized cartridge paper, i proudly present :

Project 5a: Neighborhood Elements: Existing Condition

Project 5b: Neighborhood Elements: Proposed Improvement

For the 1st time, I draw with water colour.

For the 1st time, I went visiting Developer.

FOR THE 1ST TIME, I WENT TO MAJLIS PERBANDARAN PULAU PINANG.

Project 4 : Presentation Drawing

BluePrints

After finish the modelling of comfortable chair, now comes to section of blueprints. 

First Part :

We need to draw a 2D drawing (Plan, Elevation, Cross Section and Detail) as well as coloring. besides, we also need to draw the 2D drawing in a scale of 1:20 together with the dimension listed.

Second Part :

We need to produce both axonometric and perspective drawing based on our chair. 

Axonometric should also draw in ratio of 1:20.

In this lesson, I learn how important the presentation drawing is. As told by Ar. Harris, presentation drawing used to let client have an image on final product in order to let them invest and buy your product. Hence, a clear scale and dimension are important.

Project 3B : Object Connection

A Comfortable Chair

Finally, here come s first model making. My brain was full of excitement and interest. 

In this work, we are working in one group consist of three person. We are require to produce a Wooden L-Shape seating object. Yet, we have 'UNITY' as theme for this work. For the design, we should not separate the table and chair and we should combine them together.

Hence, I do one sketch about the design which comes from the idea of "Fish Bone"

As long as we all agree to do this design, we soon went to buy material and start off.

(Looks like a toy~~)

After a few day of doing we finally come out with the product~~~~

Eventually, we are very satisfaction of our end product. Thank you all, my friends. 

Project 3A : Object Creation

A Free Form Sculpture

The theme of the sculpture is 'HARMONY', and we are required to fully express our creativity and imagination in order to produce a nice sculpture. Though, i can search many sculpture sample in web but i still cant produce something out of my mind. Or, maybe i'm not talented. 

Lets view the product:

Then, after colored:

Project 2 : Natural and Man-Made Structure

Project 2A : Natural Structure

In this project, I was told to produce a black and white sketch that can be found around the USM Main Campus. Once again, its a nightmare for me, but i love this challenge. Well, if i have a better skill of drawing i might be able to come out a drawing like this but maybe next time.

Even though i won't be able to produce drawing like above, i still try my best to produce a nice drawing. So, i went searching around the campus to find out what can i draw in this project. Finally, i found a kitten in Desasiswa Tekun. At that moment i think i will be able to produce a nice drawing. Soon, i take a picture from my handphone.

As long as I reach my room, quickly take out my sketch book and start sketching. 

Then, i produce in my A3 size cartridge paper.

Personally, I was proud of my product. However, some of my friend told me that it looks more like a fox rather than a cat.What is your view? A fox or a cat?

Project 1：Me，Myself and I

Project 1A : StewardShip

Here comes my 1st assignment, and my heart was bumping in excitement. At the moment which we are ask to do assignment, i was thinking that we might as to do some model. However, we are ask to do drawing. I never draw before not even touch the drawing instrument. And the worst is we are require to draw self-portrait. And i think i can only produce picture like this.

In this project i was required to describe my own:

• Personal Background
• How i will be in 5 years later
• As a Urban and Regional Planner, what can i contribute for the betterment of the built environment

So, here comes my 1st assignment full of stress and lost. Hence, i went to my web teacher, Google Search, in order to learn drawing. Finally, i found http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ka2PoDDyBi8. After that, i start practice in my sketchbook and I produce:

But i produce this in my assignment. Well, clearly, its different guy. Hahahahahaha

Newbie

Welcome To My New Life.

1 September 2013, I first step into Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), School Of Housing, Building, and Planning is the school where i will spent my next 3 years or perhaps 4 years if i further my master Level in Landscape Architecture. Maybe this is only a Dream for me as i know nothing about this field. Some of my friend said it was about planting trees, drawing houses, design, build houses, and etc. However, my teacher told me that it was a field full of creativity and innovative, its a field which gather all the creative and innovative person around the world to create and produce something which is incredible.

At that moment, some image flash in my brain. And it pictures like :
