Last step for assessment

This is the last step for assessment whereby I'm in charge to print out the report and A2 presentation board. However there's a problem happened which is when i brought my report to Xorex printing shop, they said the machine is broken. Then i went to other shops they said they can't / don't  do ring binding. I have no choice at that moment. So i back to Xorex and asked them help me binding with normal plastic binding. However,evening when i saw Guan Zhui just finished binding, he got ring binding. I asked him where he bind the report. He said Xorex. I speechless.

Anyway, I reprint the entire report and make a new binding again. Now i have two reports.To follow the requirements, it worth.

Proofread the report

In my group, most of the time i play the script role who takes notes during the class and double check the report.

Development of Final idea

We have decided our final idea which we are going to build a community cafe. This would be another type of community centre. Community cafe is designed to make convenient for resident whereby it would have toilet, book rack, cafe, study corner, lounge and printing machine.

We used auto cad to present our idea but yet i feel that we would have to visualise our idea. Therefore i do some sketches based on our auto cad.

Site visit

        I have been two sites for site investigation which is HDB block of Bukit panjang and Tiong bahru estate.

        HDB block 501(fig1) is a 10 years and above building,however it is considered as a new HDB style for past fews years.Void deck of block is a open space that only have some bench(Fig2) and vending machine.Some part of void deck has no shelter covered but it is a designed feature.They also have a small green garden(Fig 3) under well maintenance,it is for decoration purpose.

Another site is Tiong bahru estate. Tiong Bahru  as one of the oldest housing estates of Singapore,it has a unique architecture style. The building's don't have void deck and not more than 5 storeys(Fig4).They have a small area between every block for gardening and laundry purpose(Fig5).I can also find that their windows are in old style which still able to see curtain.
