Garden caf
Brief
You are to design the Cafe and all its associated spaces. You are aiming to create an experience for the visitor that is particular to its environment and function.
Specifications
Indoor-outdoor flow. It is very important and also think about how the building can enhance the dining experience eg some quiet spots locations for people who are not with families Some areas of privacy created by clever planting/creative walled environments, An area for dining that could accommodate 60 people at its summer lunchtime peak, with indooroutdoor flow. It is expected only 25% of customers will wish to sit down for a full meal while the rest will choose to relax in an environment conducive to enjoyment. The caf will need an area and utilisation a kitchen to serve the caf, a bottle store, Toilets/restrooms, a small reception where you could purchase locally featured garden art and or paintings sculpture etc plus limited number of souvenirs. The building will be about 200m!. A car park will be needed for 16 cars and two tourist buses plus a courtesy van and or taxi parking area. Take note of the climate use its positives, protect the building and users from any negatives. Your design will reflect the research you have done on your chosen architect.
You are to design the Cafe and all its associated spaces. You are aiming to create an experience for the visitor that is particular to its environment and function. Take note of the climate use its positives, protect the building and users from any negatives.. Provide reasons for your choices of materials, orientation, layout etc.
Requirements
Part one: Site research. Investigate the nature of the problem Analysis of site, in terms of sun/light, potential position for caf/garden, privacy, parking etc. Notes on climate, use its positives, and protect the building and users from any negatives. Indicate best placement relevant to weather and prevailing winds in the region the proposed building will be located. Photographs of site. Part two: Initial research:
Select appropriate architects or designers to study for inspiration then gather research. Use annotations to summarise the key features of your research (Use research to inform the creation of your design ideas and use the information that will definitely contribute to the refinement of your solution.) Ongoing analysis and reflection at each stage
Concepts/Generate ideas
Use research and images to help generate ideas. Use freehand sketches to experiment with ideas for your brief. Be creative, innovative, inventive.
Show in-depth investigation and interrogation of your ideas in the content of your design drawings or annotations. Use bubble maps, quick sketches or modeling (Think Frank Gehry!), to express your ideas.
Ongoing analysis and reflection at each stage. Use your research and ideas to form some concepts for both the layout and exterior appearance of the building.
Annotate using design principles and elements and demonstrations of how to relate these to their own design ideas and why they make a difference. Use notes/annotation to explain your ideas, refer to the specifications and include appropriate design language. A critically analysed solution involves the examination of the implications of the alternatives. This can be demonstrated through extensive drawing, annotation and/or other means of communication Identify the selected concept(s) and explain why chosen. Analyse the chosen concept by thinking about how it may need to be improved or developed further.
Development
The aim of the design development is to improve an idea or combination of ideas so that they fulfil the brief to a high level. This means that your development must focus on exploring ways to fulfil each of the specifications in your brief. Use sketches to develop, improve and refine a chosen concept so that a high quality solution is produced. A refined solution will involve ongoing analysis and reflection at each stage of the design process and will significantly improve the quality of the solution in relation to the specifications in the brief. Using a question or design objective for each stage of your design is a good idea to help you focus on fulfilling the brief. E.g. how can I provide a good space for socialising? or Design objective: Create a social space. Ongoing analysis and reflection can help you progress your design. Some examples of doing this are: Comparing the design to the brief and noting which areas it is fulfilling well and which need improvement. Identifying the key design issues remaining or identifying new problems that have arisen.
Your development must show CRITICAL ANALYSIS. This involves the examination of the implications of the alternatives. This can be demonstrated through extensive drawing, annotation and/or other means of communication. Use ANNOTATION to explain and justify your key design decisions. These comments should use in-depth references to how design principles are used to fully meet the requirements of the brief and specifications. They should also make the links between concepts and development. Gather and present RESEARCH where needed for your development. Your research will be carried out when needed during your design development rather than all at once at the start. Some examples of possible research could include: Sizes of furniture, fittings and door/window openings Construction methods and/or building regulations Planting information and landscaping ideas Materials for exterior. Research materials and state reasons for decisions. Interior design ideas/mood boards.
Choose between designing the interior spaces, furniture, decoration etc. Or, full landscape plans showing planting, position of outdoor furniture. Or, a garden installation for the caf garden On A3 sheets, present your final design using methods that best illustrate your final design solution with impact that sells your design. You will need to communicate in depth information about your design e.g. shape, form, materials, finishes, structural details, planting, furnishing Use some appropriate rendering techniques to enhance your presentation where appropriate. It is expected that you will use specialist knowledge, a variety of drawing systems and a range of graphical techniques appropriate to this area. Design and drawing should be in accordance with current codes of practice and New Zealand Standards where appropriate. Use annotation or an evaluation to explain and justify your key design choices in relation to the specifications. Justification requires the communication of reasons for design decision and typically relates to the design principles of aesthetics and function in relation to the negotiated brief.
Instrumental Drawings
Choose from floor plans, elevations, interior perspective, interior elevations, angular perspective and/or model.
Written evaluation of the design outcome. How did your design meet all the design specifications? Presenting your architectural solution 4
Plan and produce a presentation to communicate design ideas AS90735. 4 credits external.
Presentation at this level of learning refers to a planned exhibit of a body of work. Evidence Statement for the external Achievement Plan and produce a presentation to communicate design ideas. Achievement with Merit Plan and produce an effective presentation to communicate design ideas. Achievement with Excellence Plan and produce an effective, high quality presentation to communicate design ideas.
Clarification of Terminology: Planning a presentation will involve such things as consideration and selection of alternative modes, target audience, resources and constraints in relation to the design. Considerations in planning will include, where appropriate, aspects of function and aesthetics. Students must show the development and construction procedure associated with their presentation. An effective presentation relates to the extent to which the presentation meets the desired or intended purpose by clear communication of the key features of the design ideas. A high quality presentation refers to: composition, accuracy of layout, neatness and tidiness, precision and execution of techniques, and communication methods suitable for explaining the key features of the design ideas.

DESIGN BRIEF
Present your design solution with visual impact that sells your final design. NOTE: You may present material from any stage throughout the design process. For your external assessment, you are to complete the following requirements:
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
Consider your research findings and think about the most important aesthetic and functional design considerations for your presentation. List your key design considerations with some explanation of why they are important or how they might be addressed.
Presentation skills refer to the appropriate use of: media, precision, composition, accuracy of layout, neatness and tidiness, effectiveness and execution of techniques, correct choice of mode for the design, communication methods suitable for exposing the key features of the design.
FINAL EVALUATION
Photograph your presentation and present the photographs on A3 paper. Use notes to evaluate your final presentation: Explain how your presentation effectively communicates your design. Justify the choices you have made in developing your presentation. Justify why the presentation methods you have chosen are the most appropriate for your design. Explain how you used specialist advice and research to benefit your presentation.
Plan and produce a presentation to communicate design ideas AS90735. 4 credits V2. External. Personal Check list: Plan a presentation:
Consideration and selection of alternative model.. Evaluate existing trends relating to area of architecture. Evaluate them showing examples. Suggestions: Use magazines like Prodesign, Urbis, Architectural journals etc. Or search the web sites. Look in books to see how other architects have presented their work. Interview an architect to see how they present to clients. Consider a variety of modes and media, select and reject give reasons. Identify the most appropriate graphic modes. Who is the target audience? Resources and constraints in relation to the design? Time, costs, resources etc Aspects of function and aesthetics
Develop
What mode and, media? Consideration and selection of alternative modes? State why you chose this mode/media as against alternatives. Show the development and construction procedure associated with the presentation. Produce a presentation: No larger than A2 Present material from any stage throughout your design process Design considerations will include, where appropriate, aspects of function (fitness for purpose, user friendliness, ergonomics, economic and social needs, restraints and resources) and aesthetics (shape, form, rhythm, balance, proportion, colour and contrast) and be in relation to the brief specifications Show extent to which it meets the desired or intended purpose by clear communication of the key features of the design ideas. High quality presentation Composition Accuracy of layout Neatness and tidiness Precision and execution of techniques Explaining the key features of the design ideas
Present/Exhibit
Get feedback from intended audience. Does the presentation enhance the design solution The use of material. Colours chosenetc. How effective is the nature of the design in its communication?
"examined the implications of alternatives at every stage of the process of developing the presentation "used effective methods that clearly showed their design ideas. In the case of architectural designs this would typically include an indication of scale and orientation as well as form, materials, layout, etc.
For the award of Excellence; A high quality presentation refers to: composition, accuracy of layout, neatness and tidiness, precision and execution of techniques, and communication methods suitable for explaining the key features of the design ideas. If graphics software is used the presentation quality of the work should meet the requirements for precision, detail and accuracy.
