PROJECT 1
FASHION RUNWAY INSTALLATION
BRIEF
The project sub component was to analyze and apply from relevant case studies. In groups of 5, we were tasked with designing a runway installation for a fashion show. Studying the given cultural group of Chetti, exploring textile, texture and techniques to showcase their traditional attire and cultural essence. The installation was to feature a poetic narrative journey as well as a linear programmatic layout.
OUTCOME
Results of two in depth case studies. In 1:75 scale, a 325m2 runway installation with a linear program layout featuring a walkway for models as well as, seating for audiences. Both functional and aesthetic, the installation showcases the cultural identity through hierarchy to create a series of interactive spaces. The outcome is a full set of orthographic drawings, diagrams and a physical model that contributes to a cohesive design space.

SELF REFLECTION
A four week assignment that required so many sub-components were challenging. The workload to be presented and the deadline approaching was on a tight schedule. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to have groupmates that effectively communicated which allowed us to each recognize our strengths and pick up the pace. Designing for a cultural group that had virtually no information about them presented a difficult task. Creative minds together though, prove unstoppable as evident with our outcome.
