Urban Design Result
Apparently half of the class got a Q (Questionable as in F for Fail) and the other half just manage to squeeze through, and only a handful of lucky ones got above average for the Northbridge Link Urban Design.
I am not mad, why should I? Some of the student really deserve an F while others don’t but the question is, should any of them fail because what we are doing this semester is Urban Design. According to Wikipedia:
Urban design concerns the arrangement, appearance and functionality of towns and cities, and in particular the shaping and uses of urban public space.
In short, Urban Design is not architecture! It is like asking the interior designers to design a building. There is this whole debate doing on in the Curtin Architecurban design firmsture Forum, someone suggested throwing one of the lecturers out the level 7 window.
During the presentation, the professor mention that he wanted these types of cut section (image below), he simply love it but it is hard for me to accept the fact that these photoshoped sections are good, I prefer the simple line drawings. Not that those sectional photoshoped collage are bad but we’re now in 4th year.
Well, I am an Asian – just toe the line.

Creativity in design plays a big part in wining a customer’s buying decision, for example the ipod which is consider a cult figure in the mp3 player segment not because of its engineering feat, but its unique eye catching design. Just like architecture, it plays a big part in uplifting a country’s image, what makes European countries a must visit destination not because of its scientific achievement, but its splendid and beautiful architecture.
