Video - Glass in Architecture

A video which discusses the use of glass in the architecture of an exhibition space which closely links to the materials and overarching concept of my building which also is an exhibition for the works of my clients.

A: YOUR BEST PIECE OF CREATIVE WORK BEFORE COMING TO THIS COURSE

This was a doodle I did last year, inspired by the cracks on my friend's phone after she had smashed it onto the ground. I kept adding to it and it became a big page of scribbles and patterns. 

B: AN IMAGE OF A GREAT PIECE OF ARCHITECTURE

(Fallingwater | Frank Lloyd Wright)

A work that I've become rather attached to after studying it during my Visual Art classes in high school. I love Wright's organic architecture and his amalgamation of natural materials that fluidly transition into the environment - not working against the setting but rather, with it.

C: AN ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPH OF SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL

This photo was taken in Sun Moon Lake, Taiwan on a post-HSC Asia trip with my two friends. 

The lake is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been and the mountains (as seen in this photo) are literally layers behind layers, obscured by hazy fog. The name "Sun Moon Lake" originated from the fact that when the lake is viewed from an aerial perspective, the east side is shaped like a sun whilst the west is like that of a moon.
