INTRODUCTION

Hattie was born in Singapore and had been studying in singapore all the way till she got her Diploma in Interior Design. In the three years of studying for the Diploma, she has participate in some Singapore Design competion. In addition in one of her studio her model and design was chosen to be modelled during Archfest in Singapore.

Hattie has also pick up skills along the way. Including, AutoCAD, 3Dsmax, Adobe Indesign, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe After effect, Sketch up and Lumion.

Hattie has also secure a internship as a drafter for Grandworks for 3 months. She stop her internship as she got a place for an exchange program in Hong Kong for a semester studying BA of Landscape Design. After completing her studies and getting a Diploma, she decided to take her studies further by going over-seas.

Currently Hattie is studying in Year 3 at Melbourne University getting BA of En-vironments majoring in Architecture. She is interedted to learn more and explore different context and ideas. Something that has been more interesting to her would be designing via site understanding, interaction and towards sustaining the design without having to harm the nature..

HATTIE ONG SI MIN

Few works I have done in my studies in Diploma of Interior Design. One was to create an stucture originated from an na-ture insect in which in my case was an ant. Using their movement as a start point to create something impossible in the world,Other was to design and built an 3d interior space for a classmates. Participating in competitons to create a space in building that enchances inter-action between one another.

One Central Park was being offered to the architect Jean Nouvel to be built at a whole new scale of design. This building is located at Australia, Sydney. Here they built an integrated experience for living in harmony with the natural world. A number of distinct features has allowed One Central Park to be recognised as a unique struc-ture at an International level.

What makes the building unique are its vertical hanging gardens, cantilevered helio-stat, low carbon tri - generation power plant and internal water recycling plant.

The public park at the heart of the precinct climbs the side of the floor-to-ceiling glass towers to form a lush 21st century canopy. Using 250 species of Australian flowers and plants, the buds and blooms of the vegetation form a musical composition on the façade.

What does it inspire ? One central park is a design that will change the mindset of other designers in the world. The theory and idea of having this design built out would give others the sense of motivation turning the impossible to possible. one of the features in the building would be the cantile-vered heliostat. Suspended from the 28th floor of One Central Park’s east tower.

The idea of having a cantilevered in a de-sign is commonly restricted as the ability to be able to build it seems impossible. In the past many “special” design would have been rejected on the reasons of being not pos-sible to be done. However as the world starts changing and evolving new ways and thinking has been discovered.

Effecting the futureThe start of a first buillding will continue with a second one and a third one. Architect might have their design being more abstract and organic as they start understanding that their design could have a high chance of being build.

This allow future designers to understand the idea of nothing is impossible in the world that is every changing and evolving. However in the same state of ever evolving, many start expecting more abstract design and more impossible design. As the years pass, this building might just be an ordi-nary building that was once build. Or it could be the ever first sucessfull cantilevered building.

OUT WITH THE BIRDS

Out With The Birds uses natural and local materials as a structural element. The focus was to create a connection which leaves no impact on the site, nor any harm on the bamboo itself, so after the temporary hotel is deconstructed, the materials can be reused as scaffolding on a construction site or reused as another temporary hotel on a different location.

Penda took inspiration from Native American tipis for the structure, which would be built with X-shaped bamboo joints that hold horizontal bamboo rods in place. The horizontal rods support the flooring, and the joints could be multiplied horizontally and vertically to increase the width and height of the structure.

Effecting the future

With a flexible structural system and connected it with comfortable spaces, we have the op-portunity to create a variety of buildings of different sizes. depending on the needs, the size and amount can grow: from single rooms to a family structure, to a size of a clubhouse or even up to larger scales, which fombine more functions of a typical hotel like a lobby or restaurant within one structure.

This starts allowing other designers to have the concept that not only building with the usage of the most newest technical or construction methods will be able to create something dif-ferent.

This would definately inspire future architect by allowing their mindset only fixed in having materials that are more manmade. This allows them to explore the materials that nature has provided them.

What does it inspire ?

This structure allows others to manipulate ac-cording to ones needs and the site. In this case the site do not have to be altered to allow this structure to be built.

The nature of this could just effect the other designers to produce something of a greater scale where buildings can be made and altered based on locations and the client needs. I felt that this could be something that is different from other normal stuctures making it more perciveble to changes.

GUANGZHOU OPERA HOUSE

Guangzhou Opera House was designed by Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid. The theathe has becomes the biggest performing centre in southern China and it one of the three biggest theasthes in the nation.

The guangzhou opera house was designed in the way thats its contoured profile, unique twin boulder design and approach promenade enchances urban function, opens access to riverside and dockareas.

The main building comprises a freestanding concrete auditorium set within an auda-cious granite and glass-clad steel frame. The exposed frame is a stunning thing, a kind of giant spider ’s web protruding in several unlikely directions. It seems to chal-lenge the laws not just of conventional geometry, but of gravity itself.

The idea of computational design seems to be considered a “cheating” software for many designers. In some cases it might be right to presumed that designs can be generated using just a few clicks on the system. However by using the a de-sign software it ables lots of architect to produce the shape they desire.

In a way, Yes computational software changes the architectural industry by being able to achieve what that was impossible before. In the past, design was produce by interaction with the site and inspired by the site. However with compu-tational software, the design origin would have change.

Does computing re-design architecture?

Impacting the futureStarting from this structure, We would have seen more and more buildings being built with more and more complex design that most likely its initial design was design by sketches however as it reaches the computation stage, it evolves into something similar yet different design.

We would have to accept the fact that using software to create design is a part of all archi-tect industry. And instead of rejecting, we also needs to step up and evolve ourself to learnt new skills to keep up.

DIGITAL GROTESQUE

Digital Grotesque was design and created by Michael hansmeyer and Benjamin Dil-lenburger. The idea of the project was to algorithms to create a form that appears at once synthetic and organic. The design process thus strikes a delicate balance between the expect-ed and the unexpected, between control and relinquishment. The algorithms are deterministic as they do not incorporate randomness, but the results are not necessarily entirely foreseeable. Instead, they have the power to surprise

The combination of computational design and additive manufacturing can lead to a non-standardized, highly differentiated and spatially complex architecture that is defined at the scale of millimeters.15

Impacting the futureIn the future where more architect comes out to create buildings that are more progressively impressive than the other. It is undeniable that the fact of using compu-tation in the design has already been most use and is going to be highly practise by most archtect in the world.

As the world is always evolving, we hu-mans also adapt to the changes making it something to foresee in the future architect industry.

The ways that the structure was built starts be-ing different from the past. More details of the structure is able to be produce based on com-putarization. Does it redesign architecture in a good way or bad way? I would say yes to both. In a good way, it helps built the architecture world differently progressing at a fast pace where more captivating works are created.

In a bad way, it might just lower the creativity and imagination. As such that design at the start comes from the architect itself but after imputing it digitally, one might just change their design based o the systems in the computer.
