EXPLORATION

HAIJI

The process of design starts with exploration, but ends with refinement. The best designers carefully move from one to the other, making sure they spend enough time exploring before locking themselves into a design approach.

COMMUNICATION: PROFESSIONAL IDENTITY

This subject is related to Practice of Interior Architecture and Design. There are 4 main areas which are values & identity, my practice , Service & fee agreement, and project Audit:regulations & services. I have learned a lot in this subject, for example, in the practice visit, we interviewed Karvone founder Kyle Chan, and his speech inspired us a lot. Moreover, in the mock interview, I received the skill of making CV and application letter and the feedback of the interview noticed me what I should improve.

HISTORY AND THERORY:

DISSERTATION

Religions & Funerary Architecture This study investigates how different world religions have influenced the design of traditional funerary architecture. These religious influences include using colors, symbols, architect, and designing the places of the burials. Places of burials in the traditional settings had certain architectural designs that coincided perfectly with the people's cultural beliefs on what life the deceased expected after death. The traditional architecture designs were unique to each culture, custom and region depending on the peoples' beliefs that have evolved. Religions have evolved, influencing peoples believes and ways of life, and it also influenced the burial architecture designs and how people treat the deceased. Religion's influence on the deceased is worldwide, and religious influences have eroded most traditional values replacing them with much newer ways.
