Weekly Review - (7th April - 13 April)

1- what tasks did I complete. 

2-What I didn't achieve that I was hoping to? 

3-General feeling of how the week went, was it successful or not! How could I improve next week. 

4-How will this week benefit my final outcome?

5-What I plan to do next week. 

1- During my second week working on my Final major project I decided to expand my research. I looked into façadism as my location has part of an existing building on the site which I would like to incorporate in to my building design. It was interesting to find out the definition of a facade and to start thinking about how I would be able to make it a feature of my building. 

Secondly I did some primary research by visiting the royal academy of art to view there Sensing spaces exhibition. I found this interesting how each artist had used the space individually and how the use of lighting and smells really has an impact on the feel and use of the area.
During this week I also spent some time visiting my chosen location so that I could work out the size of the land and also to get a feel for the surrounding area and what I could bring to it.

2- I did manage to get everything done that i was hoping to this week however I would have liked to have done more research.

3- Overall looking at what I achieved this week, I believe it was successful as the information I gathered is going to be important for putting my project together. By visiting my location it has given me the chance to work out the size of the land so that I can start doing some initial ideas. It has also given me the chance to gather information about the surrounding areas so I can design something unique for this location. I could probably improve next week by doing more secondary research using books and electronic sources.

4- All the tasks I completed this week will definitely benefit my final outcome as it has provided a good start to my project and research and will give me a good basis for starting my initial ideas.

5- Next week I would like to use all the research and information I have gathered so far to start coming up with some initial design ideas and concepts along with using a range of materials to do some experimental models to help me to visualise my design ideas.
