What was written on my A3 sheet:
" To help us begin our Inhabit assignment we were given a reading to do; ‘Designing in technical social landscapes’. I found the idea of ‘gaps and collisions’ within the piece very interesting as I saw the Social Bridges as a Gap in people movement. “Gaps are perceived as problematic reminders of imperfect mathematical organisation and a reminder for our lack of ability to bring order to complex environments.” This particular quote from the text influenced my Inhabit intervention a lot as I played with the idea of unbalanced equilibrium and gravity. As wellfocusing on my own ‘Gap’ idea - I was working along side some other people in my group where we were looking at the idea of communicationby bringing people together and breaking down the social divide experienced in the Owen Glenn Building (particularly when concerning the ‘social bridges’ which only post-graduates and staff members can use). "
My A3's:
You have successfully collaborated within a group of peers to create a well thought out design. Not only have you communicated with other people, you are bringing communication into your design by allowing occupants of it to communicate outside and inside the building. It is good to see that you have located the social gaps in the building and adapted them to create a space which can now be inhabited :)
