ENBE Project 2- Better Livable Town

This final project was divided into 2 parts, Part A and Part B. For part A, the task given was to propose a better future town in a report and produce a short video presentation to describe the town. For Part B, in groups we were required to produce a physical model (using recyclable materials) of the selected town for each group and make 2 to 3 A2 presentation boards to further explain about the town.

• My Progress (Part A)

My group chose to propose a town on a small island. After some research on island and what makes a good livable town, I started to plan and propose my own future town.

• Final individual report

• Final video presentation

• The Progress (Part B)

The selected town in my group was further investigated to be made as a physical model and be presented on boards. It was a long progress of making the town model. Here are some photos of our progress.

Starting from the first measurement of materials.

Then the making of the base of model using recyclable material, newspaper.

The small wooden buildings that we cut using the saw which was one of the most tiring part.

Until the little details of the town model.

Reflection:

It was a long process until it came to the final presentation day but we had finally done it! I learned more about the impact between natural and built environments. Sustainable elements are important nowadays as green living has become one of the vital part in the universe. To create a better liveable town, the sustainable approaches should be in the first place in order to sustain our nature.

 Theories taught in lectures and requirements stated on the brief should be put into our works.

 I learned to analyse and solve the problems of overcrowded situation in a town and adding sustainable approaches to propose a better liveable future town.

 In group work, communication is the tool to produce a better final work. In this project, this comprises the making of town model and the presentation boards.

 In doing the presentation boards, I had trained myself in using computer softwares such as Adobe Photoshop CC.
