After the proposal, we proceed to the model making. It was sure that this gonna be a big project. The scale for the model is 1:5, therefore our model was estimated to be 1.2m (length)x 1.0m (width)x 1.0m (height). Time is far not enough, so just pull up the socks and get it done! We used timber as main material for the model. Other materials like pelaka and wood shellac (for painting), light bulbs (for lighting effect), nails, screws are needed.  As IBS method was proposed for our amphitheatre stage, we also applied the same method on the model making. Cut the appropriate lengths of timber. We painted the model with white pelaka as we thought it is the most suitable and  charming colour for the model.

To make them as one, I applied the same cocoon concept on the lamp covers and  handrails of staircase and ...

We are going to design an amphitheatre stage! Imagine a space located beside HBP studio which is 40mx50m, we have to design a 4.0m (width) x 6.0m (length) x 5.0m (height) amphitheatre stage with at least 100 audience seatings.  PROPOSED SITE FOR ‘AMPHITHEATRE STAGE’ PROPOSED SITE (CONTOUR PLAN) FOR ‘AMPHITHEATRE STAGE’ The stage is needed to have roof and use timber as main material. We are divided into 16-people groups. All the group members are representing different courses in HBP, symbolises the real construction and design team in construction industry. This is a BIG BIG BIG project! Site analysis, architectural and interior design, structure and material selection, simple costing, project management and construction technique are to be done in this project. It is like we are going to be a real working team and compete for a tender. Exciteness, worries and a lot of question marks filled up my mind. Some introduction about an amphitheathre:...
