Abstract workshop - A6 drawing work:

-

 

These A6 sketches were made to help me explore different techniques that could be used later in my abstract workshop. I used different mediums to explore texture and get different qualities in the sketches. For example, I’ve explored the use of graphite, inks and charcoal mixed with other additives; ethanol, soap and olive oil.


Throughout my A6 explorations, I created some abstract images such as; Downtown, Lakeside and Queuing. For these pieces, I had images of sceneries that I wanted to recreate using the techniques learned from before. The harsh use of graphite and charcoal in both Queuing and Downtown, give the impression of people waiting or power lines in the original images.

EPQ Model - Sustainable architecture:

-
Image
  For my EPQ (Extended Project Qualification) I decided to investigate how sustainable architecture could reduce the carbon footprint of a property during its construction, habitation and end-of-life. I digitally designed a three-bedroom, two-bathroom property which was then made into 1:100 scale model to show how these techniques could be put into practice. In my report, I collected primary research from surveys to understand consumer needs and price points. Additional secondary research was collected from multiple government sources and other university papers.  I also conducted an interview with a practicing architect who specializes in sustainable architecture to better understand practically how buildings could reduce their carbon footprint. This report also calculates the property’s theoretical reduced carbon footprint and compared it against the average emissions produced from a typical home in the UK. From the calculations, the property produces 265.41tCO 2 wherea...
