Week01 Task clarifications

Just to add to the weekly independent tasks, once youre up to your 6 axonometrics you may want to build it into sketchup, use the parallel projection option and rotate it around so you can get an idea how it looks like back to front for your next 6 axonometrics.

The skill to directly imagine a 3d geometry in your head and translate it into paper is a very important skill to develop, and the sooner you do the more better you will become especially as we start to progress through this course.

Crysis: you have two weeks to play around with this so go quite experimental on it. We see in the architecture of Kengo Kuma and Alvar Aalto that there is a contrast between the reflected/refractive/transparent on one hand and the diffused/filtered on the other hand. These qualities which are hard to spatialise in sketchup is something you should capitalise on once you test things out in Crysis.
