We encourage the use of a wide range of mediums for the presentation of our design proposal. These are the main skills we possess, however we would encourage you to engage with the project from a personal level and create a proposal that is able to speak not only financial investors, but to the community that the project is catering to. Alternative mediums such as photography, painting, performances and other forms of expressions are encouraged to help create an engaging project that everyone enjoys.

Day 1: Site Visit

The first day kicked off with us meeting at MTC for a brief presentation of the project. We conducted introductions and then proceeded to the site.
On reaching the site, we introduced everyone to our collaborator Louise. Louise showed us a presentation on BCC's goals and commitment towards its community, she voiced her requirements and goals for the expansion of the community center. We proceeded to interact with some of the users of the community center. We were lucky enough to be a part of a English class for Chinese natives. Following that, our lovely collaborator Louise provided us with scrumptious lunch and drinks. After a good lunch break, we briefed the team on conducting a site study. Everyone split into pairs and took measurements of the site along with site pictures. At the end of Day 1, Louise gave us all some Fajitas! to take home.

Day 3: Concept Development

On Day 3, we divided ourselves into two groups. The first group worked on the Exterior Concept and the second group worked on the Interior Concept of the Community Centre. After a lot of creative discussions we cross collaborated between the two groups to decide on the best output. At the same time we aimed on conceptually starting the publication works and well and blogging for the day.
By the end of the day we geared up for the client presentation that would take place on Day 4.

Day 5: Proposal

On Day 5, after taking notes from our discussion with the collaborator on the previous day, we collectively decided on the final concept for the exterior and interior teams. We moved ahead with the proposal and discussed the best way to visualize and document our proposal.
