Day06 - Drawing Exercises (Part2)

The day started with a sunny weather and for a change Kyle started the class by reading a poem by Mary Oliver entitled "Some Questions You Might Ask." He encourage the students to think of any poem to be read everyday even if it is in their own language.


Then the group had their design presentations. Each came up with one final drawing by sharing and gathering ideas from one another.

James remind everyone that stealing of others idea is fine. It's a way of being smart because they have to function as one and put everything altogether. They are aimed to establish their design into one direction.

One of the group design presentation (Series of drawings from each member incorporated to one final design)

The second drawing exercise, the students were put into a much bigger group and still needs to present a final drawing as a result of each members ideas.

Students drawing inspiration from the sea.

More sketches of how the students think and feel about the site.

Lastly, they had a discussion about the limitations of the project, materials to be used (decided that they have to stick to the things usually seen in Puerto Prinsesa) and surveyed the site again trying to pick up more elements and getting more details.

Tomorrow, they are expected to make a rough model of the site for presentation to the class.

The students from the University of the Philippines - College of Architecture went to a nursery after class to look for possible plants to use for the park.

Then everyone headed back to the Pension house by a multicab. :)
