In this post, I want to show the really first project in
this college, school of architecture in ITB, but from curriculum 2008 about a
year and half ago. This picture show a large teapot in middle part. Why? I will
greeting you with the story of the beginning why I could enter this program
study of Architecture. That’s because in the first year I always chose
Architecture as my first choice three in a row. I’m sure I could make it
happen, so in June 2012 the academic online show I got Architecture and new ID
number. Yeay. There is a student organization in Architecture ITB called IMA-G
(Ikatan Mahasiswa Arsitektur-Gunadharma) but I will not tell this organization in
this post. I have 112 friends in the second year. So, we entered IMA-G, we were
doing some meeting with our senior, to have many experience from them so we can
join with IMA-G as long as we lecture in architecture ITB. Finally after
inauguration, the next two weeks after that, I and 112 friends have a big
studio in 4
th floor of labtek IXB arsitektur.
In one semester we have 16 weeks for each lecture include
architecture design studio. I had take 21 credits in 3rd semester,
17 from this program, and 4 from the other programs. The title is about project
0 because in our first week, first day, Monday, we had divided into 10 groups,
each groups had about 12 peoples. I and 11 of my group friends was in group 4,
because I was in the first row and the earlier ID number, the coordinator of
this studio said I had to be the leader of the group. I just accepted that
because no one who would take to be the leader too. I have four boys and six
girls accompanied me. One of my boy-friend came from Malaysia. On that Monday,
he asked me what should he do because he looked really confuse about an order
from the staff in this program. Because I didn’t know about that too, I tried
to tell him to take the first year too like one of my girl-friend from Malaysia
that almost had a same case. But he still stayed in studio, so my group said
let him to stay with group. The coordinator pointed one of us to be the
coordinator student. One of my friend that pointed as a leader (who is the
leader of student organization now) said we should take a two-rows drawing
desks for each group.
I still remember row arrangement each desks of my friend
desks. In our first lecture studio, we accepted a project called “Small Project
1”, but I called in “Project 0” because we had to use our skill from the first
year. The order of that day is lecture-dividing group-dividing desks-preparing
desks-discussion-buying stuff for the next day-dividing stuff-going home. When
preparing desks, we bought many stuff from the small shop in this building. It
has a lot of stuff for students lecture and also the lecturer include foods,
beverages, office tools, rulers, books, clothes, merchandises, and many more.
So, we bought wide plastics sheet, wide millimeter papers, paper tapes, and
scissor. We were helping each other while assembling them.
Project 0 was a measured drawing, measured an object that
had a space inside. We determined a teapot to be measured without a mentor or
teacher. When I called my teacher, he said he was really busy with his other
job as a director of a career center in ITB. After discussing about the
project, we bought “kertas roti” -> bread paper(?) haha I don’t know about
the English, I confuse how to tell this paper. The paper is almost transparent
and thin, sometimes really sharp in each side hahaha the student of
architecture must be known about this paper.
So, on Tuesday, we began measured the teapot first together. After we had all of component measured object to draw, each other of us started to draw on each our papers. We finished it in a day from morning to afternoon. There is a picture taken from my portfolio about this project. First sheet was three elevation of teapot from top, left side, and back. Second sheet was three section, it’s a projection from elevation. So, this paper (bread paper) used to projection for the second sheet from first sheet, I didn’t have to draw it twice.
