Reflections on project part 2

I have learnt a great deal during this project. From investigating materials, a culture and its complex societies, experiments in composition, programming and representation techniques, I now have a greater appreciation in what it means to create 'architecture'.

Process has also been a key component in this project. By becoming more self aware and seeing the influence of rigid logic systems has given me a further insight into this thing called the design process. I have learnt that you need to critically assess the viability of including variables in the design, and also to be prepared to remove them if they get in the way of the process.

I feel that the 6 weeks allocated to this project is really only a very bare minimum to derive a successful and viable solution to the brief. Considerations into cultural relevance, constructability, and the precarious relationship between modularity and architecture need much more thorough investigations.
