This assignment is to investigate how architecture and spaces are created from establishing design intentions and the making of architectural elements: architectonics - solid, planes, lines and frames. The architecture will be based on the regional and tropical architects .
Our group was assigned to look upon The Deck House by Architect Choo Gim Wah located at Janda Baik, Pahang, Malaysia. The family vacation home was constructed on a slope which was the main concern of Ar. Choo.

Reflection
Through this project, I get to learn that Architect Choo Gim Wah has put in a lot of thoughts in designing the Deck House. A lot of principles are put into use into the spacial layout of the place and how to play with simple geometries to create something simple yet functional.
Diagramming is a fun way for us to highlight the main idea that we're analyzing for the architecture. It help us to easily expresses the hidden intention behind the thought of Ar. Choo Gim Wah. With the 8x8 diagrammatic models as well, we get to use explore different ways to showcase our analysis in a creative approach.
