Domus, Domus, Domus..............
Over the last week you could just feel your head pounding with it. Like a heart beat you lived and breathed it. The mad rush to make your final thoughts into something real consumes you as you devote your life to chatting with your team members about how to pull this off.
And then when you realise somethings not going to work your stomach hits the floor, then a voice from behind yells out the answer and you realise you're saved.
I think this whole teamwork thing is absolutely essential in architecture.
From my experience from working in an office, architecture is not about the ideas of 1 person but rather the input of many and i think there is no better way to bring a group of people together than a bit of pressure like a major project.
Personally looking back i thoroughly enjoyed the Domus project because it lets people administer their greatest strengths and when all those elements come together you get great team work (and a poster :-)
My strengths have been the images above, 3d computer rendering and the likes but if i didn't have my 2 team mates, it may never have looked as good as i think it does.
To add to this i would never have been able to create the physical model as accurately as it came out by myself. It required a team effort
Although the response from our adjudicators on our project was not as wonderful as we had hoped, we still created something that is our own as a team and i believe that was half the lesson
