3. Design and Technology skills
1. Compiling research for design influence
2. Using others designing to inspire innovative
ideas
3. Creating your own designs
4. Modelling your designs through CAD
5. Communicating your ideas clearly & creatively
through CAD
6. Using visual and written formats to present
your work
4. Success Criteria
You generate ideas and
recognise that your
designs have to meet a
range of different
needs.
You clarify ideas when
asked and use words,
labeled sketches
You use models to
communicate the
details of your designs.
You think ahead about
the order of your work,
choosing appropriate
tools, equipment,
materials, components
and techniques.
You identify where
evaluation of the
design and make
process and your
product has led to
improvements.
You create ideas by collecting
and using your own information
(outcome)
Describe and evaluate your
design ideas with words, labeled
(annotated) sketches and
models. You need to explain
and record possible constraints
(price, size, materials, time
available)
Also during production you need
to show some accuracy when
working and choose the most
appropriate range of tools for
the job. Your finished product
needs to be of good quality and
work as intended and have been
produced safely.
You are able to use somebody
else’s ideas in your own work
You need to show what you did
that worked well, where you had
problems and what you did to
overcome them.
You create and develop your idea by
collecting and using relevant
information from a variety of sources
You explain your ideas in more detail
through discussion, annotated drawings
and modeling, you consider the
appearance and cost effectiveness of
your product
When developing and communicating
your design ideas you show and
understanding of culture and society in
existing products have an impact on
your designs
Throughout your design ideas you show
clear examples of materials, techniques
and possible constraints
As your work develops you allow
yourself to be influenced by other
designers
You regularly check your work
throughout production, identifying and
solving problems you have encountered
as your work progresses.

House Shimouma
• Located on a narrow,
13-foot-by-36-foot lot
in a dense residential
section of Tokyo, this
three-story residence
was designed by
architect Kazuya Saito
• Helping define the look
are two open stairways,
as well as the three
seismic braces needed
to protect the house
from earthquakes.

Reflection of Mineral
The owner's desire for a
covered parking space
complicated the task of
squeezing a home into this
474-square-foot corner lot .
Tokyo-based architecture firm
Atelier Tekuto's solution was
an angular, three-story house
designed to resemble a white
crystal.
Transparent and translucent
surfaces on top let in light,
and reflective interior spaces
also make the most of that
natural illumination.

Rooftecture S
Perched on the steep
slope of a retaining wall
in Kobe, Japan, this
dramatic, wedge-shaped
house makes the most of
its triangular plot of land
overlooking Osaka Bay.
• The design by Osaka-
based architect Shuhei
Endo features a roof of
metal shingle board that
is folded down over the
front of the two-story
house to create a striking
façade.
• A section of the stone
retaining wall behind the
structure frames the back
patio.

Crystal Brick
Architecture firm Atelier
Tekuto was contracted to
turn a three-story
wooden home into a
building large enough to
hold two households.
It collaborated with
structural engineers and
local universities to
construct an addition
with outer walls made
from glass blocks and
supported by steel
frames.

Cell Brick
• The "bricks" that make up the
outer walls of this small house are
actually steel boxes measuring
roughly 35 inches by 18 inches
and about a foot deep.
• There is a small window between
each space in a row. The interior
side of each box is a storage
cubby inside the house.
• When those spaces are filled with
the occupants' possessions, they
form what architect Yasuhiro
Yamashita calls a "life layer" that
adds depth to the rooms.
• The exterior of the walls is clad in
ceramic tile to provide heat and
sound insulation.

W-Window House
• The interior of the house,
designed by partners
Kentaro Takeguchi and
Asako Yamamoto of the
Kyoto architecture firm
Alphaville, has an open floor
plan that uses different
levels, rather than interior
walls, to divide the space
into separate rooms.
• Suspended staircases,
which are made of steel but
appear as light as folded
paper, connect the spaces
visually and physically.
18. Space saving miniature architecture in Japan
New Kyoto Town House
• Instead of vertical walls,
the home has polyhedrons
with horizontal and vertical
facets made from
triangular wooden panels.
• These partitions divide the
space less formally,
blurring the boundaries
between rooms and, in
some places, providing
surfaces that can be casual
tables or benches.

19. Underwater Architecture
• Dubai plans to build a best
hotel on the water with a
depth of about 20 meters
with the name of the
Hydropolis Underwater
Hotel.
• The hotel will have 220
rooms are shaped like
bubbles.
• At the bottom of the hotel
will have a tunnel with a
length of 515 meters that can
take passengers to see the
underwater beauty with an
automatic train.
20. Underwater Architecture
• Hydropolis Underwater
Hotel and Resort is a best
hotel that is proposed and
designed by Prof. Roland
Dieterle which will be the
first underwater luxury
resort in the world.
• It is planned to be located
66 feet (20 m) below the
surface of the Persian
Gulf, just off Jumeira
Beach in Dubai.
• Funds needed to build this
project estimated at U.S. $
600 million.

23. Living Space Inspiration Research
• Create a Prezi full of images and information
that can inspire your design ideas
Your prezi should include:
1. Images of architecture that you like
2. Images of design for space
24. Product Analysis
Product design analysis means studying how well a
product does its job. This involves answering the
following questions…
1. What is the function and purpose of the product?
2. What are the different parts of the product and how do
they work together?
3. How does the product use shape, form, colour,
texture and decoration?
4. What materials and components are used to
make the product?
5. How well does the product do its job compared with
other similar products?
6. What is unique about the product?
26. Developing your design

ion_act.shtml
Homework: create a design specification for
your living space. This should be added to your
prezi for next week.
