Project 1
Phase 2 - Play Gifts & Manipulatives

Case study building - Eindhoven University - The Metaforum
Architect - Ector Hoogstad architecten

In this phase were asked to fabricate and craft a toy at the scale of a hand
base on the concept, philosophy, and architectural language  of the institution.
Utilizing the referenced elements from the Phase 1 mission statement  plates to
craft the open-ended toy

In this case, i pulled out some idea and elements that suit the aim of the building
(building for public interaction and learning center) previously studied in
Phase1 of the project and there were elements like tri-slanted column and
horizontally stretched stairs which somehow suits the purpose of the building
that was build upon.
