Website updates

-

 

Firstly, I added a new page linked to the Portfolio.

I think removed this banner that said welcome to my site.

Then I modified my introduction and included what I learnt this year and how it would help in my continuation route.

I then uploaded all of the design boards that I talked about in the last post

Then I created a now gallery and positioned it in the centre of the page.

Then I added the text "Design Boards".


Then I added a video of my 3d outcome and a link to a 3d manageable model prototype that I made using a scanning process.

I then added all the design boards.


Then I changed the background in to something more related to this term.

Initial Research

Since my project is derived from industrialism, we need to first ask what is industrial architecture? According to Hohendal, Kristin (2022), The design and construction of structures to support the requirements of the industrial sector is recognized as industrial architecture. The safe movement, distribution, and production of goods and labor are taken into account by the industrial world's architecture, which employs a variety of building designs and styles. I also found that this type of architecture is often characterized by; large windows, large open floor plans, and high ceilings, built to safety standards (Hohendal, Kristin (2022)). Since I am choosing to do a library/study space, I thought it would be a good idea to put the industrialism theme in a material context, more clearly in the materials used. I will use steel, concrete and glass for the cylinder in the center of the building since it is the part that holds everything together. I will also use steel and concret

Site plan analysis

                   2D picture of the site I chose this plan because it is close to the river yet far enough in case of floods. It is a 20m/20m square, which makes it 400 m². However, the Riad as a building will only be 255m².  This area is a village called Imlil. Which was severely damaged by the last earthquake in September 2023. According to Khatla (2023). Nearly 6000 houses were destroyed whilst 20000 were partly demolished. Site from a Google Earth 3d perspective: 3d perspective of the region using Google Earth: Analysis of the natural aspect of the Imlil area: Imlil is situated at the head of the Rehraya River on the northern slopes of the Toubkal Massif of the High Atlas Mountains of Morocco. It is at 1700 metres above sea level in a widening of the valley where three tributaries join the Rehraya. It is in many ways untypical of Berber villages in that it is situated in a valley "basin" rather than on the steep valley sides and much of it lies below, rather than a

Final project: style of architecture

Style of architecture: Any Moroccan city you visit will have a distinctive architectural fusion of Islamic, Moorish, Berber, and French styles. Modernist structures are becoming more common, but they still fit in with the colorful mix that makes Morocco so amazing.  (Hachami, 2023) After doing some research, I found that Riad gardens originated in the eastern Persian world, and scholars generally credit this to their eastern Islamic ancestors. ( Marçais, Georges (1954)). The Idrisid Dynasty in Morocco's early domestic architecture was influenced by the ancient Roman city of Volubilis. ( Boele, Vincent. Ed. (2005)). A restored house in riad-style These homes have an arcade or gallery encircling the gardens ( Marçais, Georges (1954)).  Moroccan architecture placed a strong emphasis on interior design, providing families with seclusion and weather protection. The absence of large windows on the exterior walls made of mud brick or rammed earth, as well as the centrally located interior
