Design-Writing

Occupant 1: young 20s, parkour tracer, films himself doing parkour movements Occupant 2: old 50s, parkour philosopher, retired, still does a couple of parkour movements but mainly enjoys teaching and reading Occupant 1 starts as a basic traceur. He does two parkour movements outdoors, films them, he also watches those videos. Occupant two practices two parkour movements and reads in the spare time. Occupant 1 comes to occupant 2 to be a student. So, the philosopher teaches him everyday. The young traceur studies every morning an then foes practicing and filming. In the end of the day he watches videos in the home theater. The philosopher prefers meditating outdoors early in the morning and then teaches the traceur. During the day he tries to practice parkour. In the evening the philosopher reads and relaxes in the library. Defining spatial qualities: Outdoor filming for young traceur Interconnected/wired vaulting Space for viewing videos for young traceur Cracked

Midterm evaluation I think, I used well the words and ideas from my language diagram when I was presenting, however, not all of them. I feel like I didn't talk about everything I wanted to. There were some important things to take in after midterm. The mapping out and the format can be more successful by combining the image with the text that directly relates to it. Labeling the image and providing spatial descriptions is a more clear and effective way of presenting work. Formal description of design approach A: Affected switching between stacks of corners Spatial qualities of design approach A: Sliced spaces, confined c Irregular central open space Bumpy rolling Formal description of design approach B: Continuous stacks of disjointed contours Spatial qualities of design approach B: Framed paths Hierarchy of zig zags
