ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN I REPORT
Introduction
According to Neil Denari’s project, a separator appeared to be a wall that divided
space into two disparate spaces, both of which would have specific but associated
functions. Variations of the separator will be made as individual own designs derived
from study and reflection on Neil Denari's space separator. This project speculates on
alternative functions, shapes, construction methods, and materials. Nonetheless, the
primary role of the separator stays unmodified, it acts as a visual and physical one,
accommodating the different functions of space in-between.
The key purpose is to understand the design assignment to create a spatial
framework for the form, function, construction method, and appearance of an
architectural embodiment by developing analog and digital three-and two-dimensional
models.
Methodology
First of all, the goals and values of the separator were specified and finalized
based on study procedures, supplied academic materials, framing functions and
specifications. Particularly, the project was determined to focus on alternative
functionalities and forms, etc … Following this step, the basic and major components of
the separator were visualized through 2D drawings. The idea then was evaluated,
considered and modified corresponding to the available conditions and prerequisites
from the first stage of the architectural design process. Also, a general review of the
designing schematics was presented to the instructors. After that, the drawings or
sketches were specified with detailed dimensions and notes. Simultaneously, the
existing problems need to be addressed and solved to save time efficiently in later
stages and at the same time improve the design. Finally, floor plan and elevations
would be drawn in an accurate scale thanks to cautious calculations with regards to
references (Neufert, E. et al., 2000).

Discussion
The design is conceptualized by modernism, but not completely. Modernist
architecture, or modernism, is a style that arose in response to large-scale revolutions
both in technology and culture in the early 20th century. From an empirical point of view,
it is associated with the functions of buildings, the reasonable usage of materials, the
removal of ornament, the simple and clarified forms, and the openness to the structural
innovation. (“Modernism | Tag | ArchDaily,” n.d.) Specifically, the functions of the
separator were still be prioritized without the details used as decorations, and all
elements have structural roles. The components keep a shape that is not too
complicated but instead of straight, they are curved and create a feeling of softness as
well as movement. Having several layers with the contour-line shape positioned at
different heights, the whole structure looks like a flowing waterfall from above. This idea,
influenced by parametric style, brings advantages in both aesthetic and functionality.
The design also has the same operation as sculptures of artist Angela Glajcar, who
converted simple materials such as paper, plastic and metal into volumetric shapes with
depth and solidity (“Galerie Martin Kudlek | Angela Glajcar - Arch2O.com,” n.d.).
Referring to the functions, the structure consists of two walls as two opposite
waterfalls and a void in between. The entrance wall has an exterior that serves as a
small gallery to display the studio's products. While its interior is a sitting area where
several books are placed for customers to read in the waiting time. The opposite side
of this zone includes the reception area and storage space for customers. Behind are
shelves for the studio. With this arrangement, every space is utilized and this separator
provides functions for both types of users: customers and employees.
