the house as room.
The guidelines for this project are to design a house with no internal walls in a single plan configuration within 40 sqm. This project also introduced us to Maori design principles, where in my design brief, I focused on Manaakitanga and Mahakitanga. Mamakainga for a whanau to share and host. The high ceilings elevate the space, making it feel more open. and welcoming. Open plans for the family to customise their layout for any occasion.
1. Manaakitanga : Sharing & hosting. It supports collaborative research and evaluation, helping knowledge flow between the researcher, evaluator, and participant. A place to share and host.
2. Mahakitanga : about showing openness and humility when sharing. Mahaki reminds us to share knowledge and experiences to understand each other better and foster trust in the research or evaluator relationship.
Software used : Revit, Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
