Project B: Analysis Presentation Board

Analysis Presentation Board (20%) (Individual)

Task:
An analysis presentation board consists of illustrative and abstractive diagrams, drawings and text. The drawings should include actual and conceptual design ideas of floor plans, building sections, analysis diagrams and sketches expressing clarity and in-depth investigation of the precedent studies. The drawings should be composed on one A2 board only and strictly hand-drawn and hand-written.

You should find as much information on your assigned building as possible. Some projects have more information available than others. Your assignment is to provide an in-depth analysis of the building and provide thorough reflections of the questions listed in the subsequent section.
Analysis should include:

1. Answers to the Precedent Study Analysis questions below:
   
   1. How does the building reflect the spirit of the time and place for which it was built?
      
   2. What are the initial ideas and the design concept?
      
   3. How the initial ideas and the design concept affecting the architecture?
      
      
2. Illustration of Precedent Study Analysis in relation to the series of building conceptual elements listed below – each student is to select and conduct analysis of one element from # 1 to 5 and to synthesize the design concept Partí of # 6.

1. Concept and Architecture analysis (i. Architect and/or Building concepts, ii. Architecture/Style/Identification of Place, iii. Person-Container-Social relationship)
2. Building massing analysis (i. Material and Structure- geometry of making, ii. Geometry - alignment/anthropometry/social geometry/ideal geometry)
3. Circulation Analysis (i. Circulation to Use-Space, ii. Natural ventilation)
4. Spatial Organization analysis (i. Spatial planning & Landscape/Site Siting, ii. Building sequence and process, iii. Public vs. private, iv. Axis, v. Symmetry/Asymmetry & balance, vii. Repetitive to unique, viii. Additive and subtractive, ix. Hierarchy)
5. Building plan-section/elevation analysis (i. Plan to Section or Elevation, ii. Natural light penetration, iii. Significant architectural element)
6. Partí - Culminates and Summarizes (i. gesture, ii. essence, iii, dominant idea, iv salient characteristic of the building) 

Reflection:

For this board, I did question 1 and 6 which is concept analysis and parti, these questions relate to project A which is basic infos of the building. This board require my further understandings towards of St. Peter's Basilica so that the answers provided for the questions are genuine and do not mislead the others.

The board eventually need to be presented during our final presentation so first we need to understand what are we actually doing. I make use of the resources on the internet and gather the pictures, texts according to the requirements of the questions. This assignment taught me how to gather information and make it presentable, understandable.
