Reflection Paper Architecture Facade
THE DESIGN PROCESS
Faculty of Architecture, Delft University of technology Strategic Architectural Design Development (SADD) Msc 5, Chair of Materialization
1st Tutor (A): Ir. Maarten Korpershoek 2nd Tutor (BT): Ir. Huib Plomp External Examiner: Dr. Ir. Ana María Fernández Maldonado Student: D. Kaatee (1401475) Date: 07 March 2013
Preface This paper is part graduation studio SADD (Strategic Architectural Design Development). In this document the focus will be on showing the way of working during the design process from February 2012 till April 2013. The design development and understanding it better is the aim in this studio. With an urban design, architectural design and the building technology this project in very wide orientated. We learned to investigate different design strategies and designs to develop our conceptual design ideas into a worked-out design with an scientific and more technical approach. The design project in this studio is the UN Environmental Council (UNEC). This will be the Headquarters of Sustainability for the United Nations and from this location they want to coordinate the global developments on sustainability and investigate the global environmental issues. On the following pages there is a reflection on the my design process during this design course. On the next page you will find the content with the different chapters in which I explain the project and the design process I used.
