SAID 1002 Studio | Modular Unit Exercise:
Students were to investigate and design a series of modular units that explore repetition and the part to whole relationship created through the aggregation of multiple units of a system. Students were encouraged to select objects from a built environment or the natural environment that they were interested in abstracting as a form generator for the overall design of the modular unit.

From Line to Plane!
SAID 1001 Studio took on a creative challenge: turning simple lines into planes and building a 9” x 9” x 9” spatial composition!
The goal? To explore how planes define space — creating layers of foreground, middle ground, and background, and inviting views through and into the cube. Every angle reveals something new. Each plane connects, contains, and transforms space … proving that even a few lines can grow into something dynamic and full of depth.
