The aim was to design a 160-square-foot housing unit that can be arranged into a larger system. While the chosen site was the Great Northern Way Campus in Vancouver, a developing community of four academic institutions, the small home will address the needs of students and newcomers to Vancouver. Another important part of the project was to demonstrate the benefits of using Cross Laminated...
Many elements of graphic design are akin to the elements found in music: technical aspects such as line, space, scale, colour, grids and patterns can be paralleled with elements of music such as pitch, rhythm and dynamics. With this unique correlation, we were able to give form to musical elements or translate music back to the graphic. Each grouping of the design...
