Post Presentation of Final Thesis Assessment

Done with the first semester's final presentation. I think I did OK, but I'll record them some of the panel's comments so that I can revise it later.

INTERNAL PANELS:
Prof Taj
Dr Lim
Dr Tareef

Internal panels had no comments. As expected, since they are already familiar with our designs. It would be absurd if our own panels suddenly stand up to criticize us. The correct way: they sit there and monitor the situation, should any discourse rise among the external panels, they will take control of the situation. (through explanations, clarifications etc)


EXTERNAL PANELS:
Dr Doris
Dr Sani

Dr Doris liked my presentation a lot. She mentioned that it was very well structured and arranged in a systematic step-by-step way. Boy, glad to hear that. She did added something helpful which is how do I relate back the design to the original Peranakan village. Food for thought.

Dr Sani had not much problems, except for the complexity of my thesis. This issue has often been highlighted slightly by Prof Taj along the semester. Maybe I can integrate my residential types into one big complex. Kinda like Habitat 67. Thats some food for thought.




my thesis unit. We are HOME.
