Design Narrative
During the pandemic, people are constantly troubled with negative emotions. Thus, we decided to strip those emotions and leave them with emptiness. Users will go through a series of  spatial experience from give, steal and return. The use of natural light from maximum light exposure to complete darkness when users enter the underground structure until complete darkness when they reach the middle part of the folly- a steel dome. When users exit the dome they go through the same spatial experience when they first enter giving them a sense of deja vu. When light and air is returned, it further emphasize the emptiness experienced in contrast to the experience above ground.

REFLECTION

I have learned about enhancing spatial experience through the use of light, ground level, space volume and material. We use timber to express a warm and comfortable experience and steel to express a rather cold and empty emotion. I also learn about how to important it is to include spatial poetics to meet the design intention we aimed to achieve,

Thinking & Problem Solving Skills
I was able to think critically and creatively on how to present my design through drawings in a neat and clear method. I can think clearly for solutions when I face problems.

Lifelong Learning
I could practice learning from others whenever I have discussions with my teammates as we can exchange different ideas and we approach the design from different perspectives.

Discipline Specific Knowledge
I was able to implement knowledge on spatial experience, materiality and introspection that I have learned from lecture classes into the folly design.
