Urban Design Life 

The biggest wave of urbanization, or a movement back to the cities and the resulting urban gentrification. The factors behind urban environments is to have to encourage availability of jobs, a great and better cost of living through the city where everything is a minute away, and a general preference for a more minimalistic, yet cosmopolitan way of life that suburbs and villages don’t offer which is a great inspiration for the Emporium Building and a good challenge to design and bring life to cities.

Emporium Site Drawing Analysis - Finding that this site has a great historical value to Port Elizabeth and its Communities and looking forward to seeing value come alive... 

As seen above .. measuring up and getting those basic (most important) dims to starting the design as well as traffic flow, possible walk ways, parking, sun rising, sunsets and flooding.

PLAYHOUSE THEATRE 3D DESIGN 

[ameenxxii]

Frank Lloyd Wright an architect and writer, known as a freely creative master of American architecture whom became famous as the creator and expounder of “organic architectures”—his phrase indicating buildings that harmonize with their inhabitants and their environment. 

The boldness and fertility of his invention and his command of space are probably his greatest achievements which are so inspiring to rethink bold and out of the box, out of your comfort zone and express yourself better through architectural designs. 

One inspiring man with such great designs and a achievements.

Update on The Playhouse Theatre Design...

Doing a site analysis and looking at the location as seen above in the final site analysis layout poster.. The site is located in Humrail, Port Elizabeth..

Humrail is close to the beaches of Port Elizabeth with homes that are worth well into the double digit millions because of the incredible views it offer over Algoa Bay showing off the beachfront, close to a golf courses and downtown shopping centre's which is an advantage to show off my Amazing Theatre Design looking over the beachfront..

The Playhouse Theatre Design Project

Completed a Final layout of 3 precedence studies on a Theatre, Auditorium and Exhibition centre as it has given me a lot more information about Theatre design than I knew and expected to know, quite interesting.. It had shown me a bit more of a structural aspect too, working with glass, heights, and airy spaces which will promote all views from the surroundings.

Next will be looking at more of the site, and how I'll incorporate my precedence and ideas to it showing of the exterior yet interior showing off the views of the beautiful city of pe..

A Theatre Design Project for Design Module 

“THE PLAYHOUSE MUST GO ON ARCHITECTURE FOR PERFORMANCE” 

Looking at the brief for this theatre design project, it requires in-depth investigation  of theatre and playhouse as it is our first theatre design, as we need to investigate appropriate spatial planning and the complexity of the structural implications. 

Looking at a Precedence study i found at first, The Guangzhou Opera House in London, a more depth and 3d design section to understand the structural aspects, i got inspired with its exterior and the curvilinear elements of it focusing on glass, steel and concrete finishes for exterior and more of a soft atmosphere as you enter the interior...there are many more inspiring aspects of this Opera House as its known for its fantastic plays and drama scenes.

A Final Submission for the Ceaserstone 2020 Design competition.. Introducing a Collier Jetty, Fish Quay..

Fun and exciting design incorporating a ship and looking at SA history at the V&A Waterfront!!

[ameenxxii]

Starting my First Ceaserstone 2020 Competition project located at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town..

Doing research on the location and its history, I've gain inspiration from the first ships arrival of Jan Van Riebeecks in Cape Town in regards to looking to improve natural anchorage of trade and celebrating the cities history and focusing on breaking the chain of colonization by establishing local means of opportunity for citizens..

Amazing sketches were done above on the structure of mast sailing ships as seen as well as a deconstruction of the ships skeleton structures and trying to incorporate it into my Ceaserstone Design..

A lot of inspiring stories of South Africa looking at "the city of hope" as quoted by Jan Van Riebeeck himself!!

Reminiscing the brewery site visit with the design class of 2020..looking and seeing that life was as easy as jumping and squeezing into car filled up with friends and currently in the new world era of Covid-19, one needs to rethink every step before having contact with friends.
