INTRODUCTION1. say our names and first what you are going to introduce and what is the order of the whole presentation (simple form).

2. Identify what is on the tableHTS, Technicals, exhibtion prints, typology books, 2 portfolio.Files: Correspondances, research files (TS / HTS), models - bamboo, moulds, joints, plastic houses,

3. The intro from future practice - links to HTS need to be strongly visualised a. map - where on the border?b. aerial photo - high res printc. reference to unchr tarpaulins

4. Describe the chart top to bottom._ describe 5 symbolswhat it tells us / themthe chart is the key to the entire project...Funding... etc.

Chart as a replicatable methodology - not a history

5. Introduce first speaker

INTRODUCTION

1. Reiteration of the symbols for the individual project (first sheet)

aerial photo

Why am i working at this scale?

HTS- material in the camp / material constraints / spatial constraints / pseudo vernacular

material turnover drawing

how material turnover enables the testing and development of the project

house survey - joints - joint comparison

support strategy / design strategy / timescale ( 6month)

go through joints - technical side / bamboo precedents

go through foundations

on site testing with carpenter, cross bracing

diagram to describe design / manufacturing loop

return to house survey - transitional dwelling

proposal for new transitonal dwelling type based on jointing system, cross braced, mosquito netting and shop platform.

INTRODUCTION

1. Reiteration of the symbols for the individual project (first sheet)

Aerial photo - social analysis

social analysis / house types

house survey roof types.

house survey environmental

all houses different / logic has no clear objective - rather habit.

technical investigation into environmental optimisation

design production of house types / neighbourhoods

distribution strategy

distribution test

evaluation

Return to aerial photoand pin point areas for potential new house types:

slope, edge, high density, low density

show sketches for new house types and localtions

show system built brochuresand discuss methods for deisgn communication to population - ie. laminated cards, livelyhood / reward schemes etc.

1. ENVIRONMENTAL BRIEF

2. MATERIAL BRIEF

3. SITE CYCLEexisting materials

- temperatre (hot day / cold night)

- more light

- more wind / ventialtion (decrease mosquitoes)

- cutting local resources (timber, bamboo) affects surrounding communities resulting in deforestation (mud/land slides)

- less material is being supplied to the camps 1. bamboo - quality bad / cut at wrong time of the year 2. leaves - not enough per house resulting in leaking roofs

- no flexibility in design to accomadate <1. Environmental Consid.>

- quota of material

- life cycle of material

- material legislation

- bamboo

- euvalyptus

- teak
