In groups of 5, select a commercial / residential building (a fun, creative space) which allows you to
experience and explore most of the building materials covered in the module.
You are required to produce:
PART A: GROUP (two A2 boards, landscape. Mood board is separate on its own)
1. Brief introduction of the selected building & Reason for selecting the space
2. Mood Board
• Your mood board should include color, pattern, photographs, sketches and informative design elements to
reflect the materials used and ambience of the space of your choice (without using any words or description)
3. Identification of Materials
• Draw out plans, sections and elevations to indicate the materials.
• Explain briefly the types of material that are used in a specific area/space,
4. Application of Materials
• The physical and chemical properties of these materials
• Explain the suitability of material used in context to concept, occupancy and climate.
• Explain and illustrate the findings in detail in terms of suitability of the materials type, application, aesthetic,
maintenance, etc.
PARTK B: INDIVIDUAL (ONE A2 board, landscape)
