Design board creation

 This week I started the creation of my design boards for my project. To do that, I used photoshop.


the first step was to choose my background picture. I went on unsplashe which a site for free images.


I chose this image because it is simple and goes along with the colours on my outcomes. After that, I opened Photoshop and created a new file by clicking on " New file" and select an A3 size that I put in landscape mode. 




The next step was to import the picture I downloaded from unsolash to photoshop and to do that I clicked on file > open > on your computer and chose the image.

After that I imported my logo that I created on "logo for free" and positioned it in the bottom right corner of the page, then I clicked on commit > remove background to match the logo to the rest on image.

Then I clicked on the "T" on the tool bar on the left side of the screen to add the name of my project and the title of the design board.

I then uploaded my concept image by following the same steps I took when uploading my background image. I cropped my image to give it the right size and used the select tool to positioned the image where I wanted it to be.

To finalise the design board I added my text with the writing tool and chose the size of the text to be 8pt


I followed the same steps for the rest of the boards which are here:

Multi-faith centres and religious spaces

Multi-faith  centres are inclusive spaces that encourage dialogue, understanding, and collaboration among people from various religious backgrounds. They   provides a space where people of differing religious beliefs can spend time in contemplation or prayer  (Center for Architecture, 2023) .  These spaces promote diversity and unity through shared values and interfaith harmony. They provide a neutral setting for worship, dialogue, and community-building, contributing to inclusivity. The significance of these centres in promoting inclusivity and diversity lies in their celebration of diverse religious traditions and encouragement of interaction among different faiths. They also foster open dialogue to break down cultural and religious barriers through shared spaces and activities, as well as promote the idea that diversity is an asset by providing a space where all faiths are respected  (KAICIID, 2020).  Understanding diverse cultural and rel...

Final major project: Digital software

 For my project I will use SketchUp to help me achieve my final design. SketchUp is an easy 3D modelling programme . SketchUP landscape design SketchUp is a really handy software for landscape architects and designers who want to create playground designs. It has many useful features and advantages that are specifically designed to meet their requirements. Here are some reasons why SketchUp is a great option for for this task: 1. User friendly interface  The interface of SketchUp is well-known for being easy to use and understand. Beginners and professionals alike can easily navigate the workspace and utilise the simple tools.

It helps designers visualise playground layouts, equipment, and landscaping elements in a realistic three-dimensional space. The software has precise modelling to...

Research - Final major project: Style of Architecture

For me Playground architecture is about designing and planning outdoor spaces, I am interested in design that are functional, and give purpose to community. For this project I am inspired by three Architects, Kunal Maniar, Carl Theodor Sorensen and Aldo Van Eyck. Kunal Maniar Carl Theodor Sorensen Aldo Van Eyck Kunal Maniar is one of the most famous landscape architects in India. He worked on many projects and always cares about nature but most importantly about water conservation. As my project focuses on the ecosystem and sustainability, Kunal Maniar is a great inspiration with his work and techniques. "Landscape architecture and mindful planning interventions applied at a large scale can help restore ecological balance in regions that have suffered ill-effects of exploitation by humans and build resilience against anthropogenic climate change" (Kunal Maniar, 2023). Architects such as, Carl Theodor Sorensen and designers who work on playground architecture focus on creating...
