term1 crit feedback

What the panel commented was:
1. The aesthetics of the system need to be developed more and thought about in the context of the kind of system you are making and what the architectural intent of the system is.
2. With the next set of drawings you produce try not to reproduce the dark gothic look and feel that you've been working with this term but find another way of graphically engaging with the architecture.
3. Think about exploring new ways in which you render your designs.
4. It is obvious that you are thinking when you are making your drawings so do not be derviative and copy an existing style but try a new one of your own.
5. Need to think about why you've doing the architecture, where it is and then develop the look and feel from there.
6. Remember the context of your original questions at the start of the term and reflect back on the current project and think about whether you're still asking questions that are important to you.
7. Find a site for the work that you can explore.
8. Distinguish between architectural tools and a machine.
9. Can you make the tools disappear in the site and the production of the architecture.
10. Can you think of how the manufactured stalactites may be different to natural ones. Do they grow at angles. Do they follow light or are they just vertical structures. Ask yourself why and what are they creating.
11. Look up images on Rock Salt mining in Poland and also research ice formations in Norway and Antarctica.
