In Possible-全國空間設計科系聯展( Department of Space design, Associated Exhibition)

總體來講，雖然多數作品讓我有點失望，不過仍是有些不錯的收穫。看到不同學校的發展與努力也是挺有意思的。

This weekend, I went to see the "Department of Space design, Associated Exhibition". Be honest, I was disappointed in most works of this exhibition. Some projects were not even finished, and the renderings looked terrible. However, there still were some nice designs.

 

本次最有趣的我想便是大葉大學的畢業展-光與地勢的纏鬥(有點矯情的Topic)。 

In my opinion, Dayeh University's works were the best in this exhibition. The topic of their individual exhibition is "the struggle between light and landscape"-sounds a little weird, right?

不同於其它學校自由選題，他們統一以"墓園"為主題，同時表現法上統一使用手繪-我認為是以統一的"量"來打出一張不同的牌。 

Unlike the other schools' students who could choose different design issues with their own wills, the Dayeh University's students all had a same issue which was given by their chair professor. In the last year of their university life, they have to design a tomb as their thesis works. And all of them must use the same rendering skills for their works-traditional hand drawing, such as water color, pencil or marker.

 

表現法全用手繪-如鉛筆、水彩等等。我覺得有點可惜的是多樣性很低。 

This strategy has its own pro and con. The advantages are that it makes their works looked very fancy and clean-all works are organized in the same rendering style. However, this strategy also reduces the variety of their works, even limited the creativity of their designs. 

 

即便是手繪表現法也是有不同的可能-Peter Cook、Archigram、巴特雷等等的作品都有諸多種手繪表現法-不過這裡幾乎統一用伊丹潤的鉛筆上色-連保羅魯道夫的針筆風都很少見。 

We could see this problem in the rendering skills which they used. Most of the students chose to use the water color and pencil as the main material, because these are the simple ones to apply. It is hard to see other kind of rendering styles in this exhibition- collage, pen or even pastel, those which you could see very often in the works of Archigram, Bartlett and AA schools are all disappeared.

 

 另一個問題是設計手法感覺上也與表現法一樣-被統一了。不過這拼版的表現也挺有意思。 

Even the work itself became very banal-no new planning, new program and new forms. They all look like Tadao Ando's works but without Ando's spirit.

 

話說現場解說妹妹向我提到，他們老師要求他們去找臺灣沒人開發的荒地去做為基地--這好像有點取巧?? (順提，這張是平面圖，不是剖面。) 

By the way, the narrator (one of their students) told me that their tutors asked them to find a field without development as their building sites. I think that request is a little tricky- if you choose a vacant site in the suburbs, you don't have to deal the problem of urban context and lots of law restrictions. In the same time, no restrictions, no creations.

(BTW 02: This is a plan, not a section.)

 

 

 雖然說我點出數個疑點，不過總體來講我還是很肯定他們的-乾淨的模型、圖面，加上很感性的影片與音樂，整體氛圍其實不錯。 

Anyway, although I have pointed out several disadvantages of their works, I still thought they are the best in this associated exhibition. Rather than the other schools, there are more details in their plans and sections, and their models are much fancy than the others' works. In conclusion, this is a good exhibition with high completeness.

 

 不過我有個很大的疑問-一整年下來評圖老師每天都要碰這些生生死死的東西，不會發瘋???

 

 (XD 去背很累的阿...)

 

 

 

 

 

  

 崑山大學研究所--我覺得是件只得其形不得其神的作品，蠻可惜的。 

These are the works of KunShan University. Actually, I think their works are lack of intention. Most of their works are lack of theory to support. They are just nice-looking models.

 

 

 缺少相觀的論述與背景知識支持，就是件有Feeling的Model而已。 

 

 沒有內部，只有構架。

Take this one for example. Although this skyscraper looks pretty cool, the design group has never mentioned why they make the building looking like this in their presentation, and the function of those cubes inside were still unknown. I think that they only manipulated the form without any reasons, and it is a serious problem in architecture design.

 

 

 

 

 這好像是樹德科大的作品。在本日的展覽中偶爾會出現幾件這種"造型能力爆炸"的作品。

I guess this is the work of ShuTe University. There are occasionally some good works with interesting forms in this exhibition, but most of them are lack of logic and theory to support their innovative forms.

 

 很可惜的設計的邏輯與論述都不夠強-無法解釋設計師心中的黑盒子。

 

 看起來有點像Emergent早期的作品。
Don't you think it looks really like the early works of Emergent Architect?

 

 一張花花的剖面。

 

好像是在北科亦有帶設計的潘天壹老師組作品。
