TUTORIAL DISCUSSION


Today's discussion with Jane was quite beneficial. I have updated her with my lastest ideas and she is quite happy with the concept and direction i have taken.
She mentioned to me to start communicating my some ideas as basic as possible.. also to start compiling board ideas for final presentation.

At this point of time i feel i am on track to completing the design.. Yet there is still a way to go!!

041 [W12] LECTURE & TUT NOTES

|| Lecture || Master Course Introduction

Today Phil gave a lecture that outlined a few key points for next years Masters Course. He covered the course structure and gave a brief Q & A at the end of the lecture for students to ask any questions.
I am excited to start the masters course next year.. it will be quite a challenge after listening to todays talk.

TUTORIAL DISCUSSION


Today i had a brief meeting with Jane. I have updated her with my latest decisions [changing my design approach] and she agrees with my direction.
Jane has continued to push for details and scaled floor plans to help explain connections, ideas and services...
