TO ENHANCE NOSTALGIA AND A SENSE OF COMMUNITY THROUGH SEAMLESS DESIGN SOLUTIONS
“Playing is such an important part of our healing process. Our spirit needs to frolic, so we can return to innocence”

The brief of this assessment was to build upon the design of ‘The Lemon Tree House’ by Triad Studio as part of a design competition for housing Gen Y. As a group we were to create a documentation package. The package included documentation drawings, a graphics package, relevant FF&E schedules and a drawing transmittal. The aim was to create a cohesive documentation package. This assessment introduced the reality of practice to us as students, whereby we had to work togther in a group, manage issues that came about, and create a design ‘template’ that we were all to follow in order to create a cohesive package. It also enabled us to learn the process of creating a whole documented package and what was required.
