Project 1 deals with the understanding of materiality in relation to use and experience: Materiality is seen as a setting for communal activities to convey meaning and associations as well as a function of structure and construction. We were required to design a Food Kiosk, which is intended to showcase architectural form as a construct of materiality for a proposed set of activities. The exploration of themes centred around the notion of food preparation and consumption in this project will relate to the programmatic requirements in Project 2.

For this project, I designed a transformable kiosk which uses simple mechanisms, materials, construction methods to represent the simple yet sophisticatedly crafted traditional Chinese dumplings.
