Case Study No. 2
Thesis Proposals have all been received. Thank you!
Onward....
Please proceed with your next case study. As this is YOUR thesis, I would like to challenge you to create a series of diagrams or one diagram which reveals something about your thesis concept. Think carefully: Have you seen any diagrams lately that really show something about a project? This is not meant to be a series of illustrative diagrams which show a whole project in a complete architectural way. It is not meant to be drawing on top of plans and sections that you find on the project. Be innovative in your drawing and diagramming. I encourage you to use drawing as a method to realize your concept. Arrangements/adjacencies can be meaningful too. What drawing or image do you place next to your diagram? Does that change the meaning of your work?
Post your Case Study No. 2 in "Presentation Board Format" on your blog by 9AM on Monday, February 4th. (I don't want a series of individual diagrams to be posted, please compose a board or series of boards which is about this case study and post the "board" as an image). You should include basic plans, sections, and photos of the case study as well as your drawings/diagrams. You should also write a short synopsis of what you did, what it shows and relevance to thesis.
