Reflection
Throughout this project, I have learnt how to relate the idea of the self and the body to space and its experiential qualities as well as have a basic level of understanding of materiality and detailing to capture experiential qualities of the design. I have also implemented interpersonal skills and lifelong learning skills by studying independently as we are not allowed to go back to campus. Besides that, the tgc of discipline specific knowledge has also been used by putting theories of tectonics and anthropometry into use.
