Architect: Louis Kahn

The reason I chose this building because according to me it is the ideal way of viewing the world of today.I always search for balance in whatever I do.  From the site plan, Salk Institute is located between the coastal area where beach sports are held and a formal area filled with educational institutes. As human, we also have to relate to nature. The building looks like a cut-through a monolithic rock structure. The notion of exploration is articulated in its form and spaces. It has most of its windows and balconies facing the view of the sunset. The view is the same, yet the balconies and windows are at differing distances. This encourages people to look at things in several perspectives. All these architectural expressions together create a much simpler way of analysing and growth whether personal or nationwide.

The material of the structure, lumber. Taken from the surrounding context , reflects my personality that was greatly affected and molded by those around me. Lumber is extremely versalitile , it is seen playing the roles of columns, beams , foundations , walls , floors and furniture in this bungalow. Flexibility of it being able to play each role perfectly as the jack of all trades in architecture. The three dimesional design where the floor levels are relative and spatiality is perceived differently according to one's position, is the main reason i think this building could reflect me ,as i find it interesting to see things with a different perspective , to put myself in other's possition before i judge.]]> 2016-09-19 08:06:49 UTC https://padlet.com/norhayatihussain/10x4bdxow0ap/wish/124648162 The Shard                       Southwark, London                                                                          Name: Loh Yu Jin               Student ID: 0315795                                                                             The Shard as known as "The architect's dream" (A vertical town) designed by Renzo Piano,is a 95-storey skyscraper in Southwark, London. The advantage that the height of the building gives are the wide range of view and sense of liberty. High up in the sky, away from the hectic landscape on the surface. These reflects my pursue of freedom and inner peace.The fact that The Shard wasn't design from the bottom reflects my method of thinking because I like to understand things with the most comfortable way if possible.The sharp and edgy design throughout the building reflects my unique choice of perception towards things that attracts my attention as unconventional objects tend to captures my attention more. eujean1995 https://padlet.com/norhayatihussain/10x4bdxow0ap/wish/124722636 (Vaguely expressing your values)]]> 2016-09-19 13:21:51 UTC https://padlet.com/norhayatihussain/10x4bdxow0ap/wish/124722636 Rozanna 0317967 https://padlet.com/norhayatihussain/10x4bdxow0ap/wish/125722001 Habitat 67

designed by the Israeli-Canadian architect Moshe Safdie as the Canadian Pavilion for the World Exposition of 1967, was originally intended as an experimental solution for high-quality housing in dense urban environments. Safdie explored the possibilities of prefabricated modular units to reduce housing costs and allow for a new housing typology that could integrate the qualities of a suburban home into an urban high-rise.

the reason why i feel this building is a representation of my personality is because of how every unit accommodates uniquely to its occupants, consideration to people's needs. other than that it is and experiment to prefabrication and new design to apartment living, as the modular blocks are open to sufficient natural sunlight and wind it resembles my open-minded approach to issues.]]> 2016-09-22 14:00:34 UTC https://padlet.com/norhayatihussain/10x4bdxow0ap/wish/125722001 LEE KA HOE 0315908 https://padlet.com/norhayatihussain/10x4bdxow0ap/wish/125857768 The building that I chose which is bamboo house by  Kengo Kuma. The bamboo house managed to express my synthesis personality between complexity for my outside part and simplicity for my inner part. The significance on how this building reflects my feeling is Kuma's use of stalks of varying lengths and diameters to lightly divide the interior spaces from one another that infuses the building with a peaceful complexity. This is most evident in a tea room featuring a platform surrounded by shallow pool and semi enclosed on all sides by translucent veils of bamboo that, suspended from structural elements beneath the overhead glazing, hang just above the water. The tea room's placement at the center of the main floor where it is surrounded by public spaces edged by other bamboo elements of varying degrees of density. This gives the villa the experiential richness and pleasurable intrigue of a densely planted forest.]]> 2016-09-22 19:31:25 UTC https://padlet.com/norhayatihussain/10x4bdxow0ap/wish/125857768 TAN REE HAN 0315978 https://padlet.com/norhayatihussain/10x4bdxow0ap/wish/132249997 Cairns, Australia
Charles Wright Architects 

Cairns Botanic Gardens Visitors Centre is designed with a mirrored facade that literally reflects the surrounding gardens. Rather than cover the surfaces with a single polished plane of metal, the architects added a series of flat panels that separates the facade down into sections. Each one sits at a different angle and helps distort the reflected images. The building have a non-linear shapes, generated by the routes of predefined pathways and locations of mature trees. It includes various spaces for public and office use, while also adopting sustainable green design.
The visitor centre reflects my own expression on self with a facade which conforms to surroundings but still maintain self expression through distortion. A constant flow on the surface, while possessing hidden functions.

Azerbaijan designed by Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid and noted for its distinctive architecture and flowing, curved style that eschews sharp angles.
The reason that I have chosen Heydar Alivey centre is that i feel this building 's curves and overlapping represent the complexity of my personality with all ups and downs. In addition, fluid relationship between its surrounding plaza and the building’s interior represent my relationship with the community around me the most. ]]> 2016-11-10 15:44:20 UTC https://padlet.com/norhayatihussain/10x4bdxow0ap/wish/136770574 https://padlet.com/norhayatihussain/10x4bdxow0ap/wish/295091273 2018-10-20 16:05:12 UTC https://padlet.com/norhayatihussain/10x4bdxow0ap/wish/295091273
