Leather card holder
Assignment
I drew three random items blind-folded. Then I annotated and analyzed them without blinds.
The cable has the bigger end (USB) and the smaller end (Lightning). I recognized the lightning port by touching which it is rounder and smoother than my other charging cables. I know it is in a loop but I don’t know how exactly the cable is curved.
This shows the feeling of thickness, softness and weight of the cable.
The second item is a lip balm. There is a rough part at the bottom designed to be easily rotated. Without looking at the drawing, I couldn’t know where I drew the lines. But I guess the lines communicate the rotating motion by accident. When I rotate it, it feels like I am pushing it out.
This is the balm or ointment surface.
The third item is a lock. The lock makes sounds even with little movements. When I was blind-folded, I was sensitive to sounds. Again, the “rotating passwords” part is drawn out of the place.
I couldn’t feel the difference between materials by touching, but I felt the different textures of the same material. Because I couldn’t see or feel the numbers, I couldn’t unlock it.

In class sketches of a mug, highlighting the parts that are most noticeable to touch.
Assignment
The following two sketches were of objects placed in a box, and chosen blindly. I selected an object, explored it by touch, and then returned it to the box before opening my eyes and beginning to draw. I recognized the first object (a portable speaker) for what it was immediately, but the second remained a mystery until after I had completed the drawing (the metal insert for the nose piece of a mask).

CIRS is built on a slope.
Its LID system bascially consists of the green roof, rain garden, and water treatment system. Stormwater is collected from the highest roof top and storaged by underneath cistern, treated by water treatment plant, and finally supports back to the daily uses in the building and also irragate the rain garden and the verticle planting.
