Thesis Study - 6th Year of Architecture

It is my final year at University and I am working on my thesis project. My chosen thesis is about the impact of sustainable living in an urban environment and how an 'Urban Village' might achieve such a goal as providing food for its occupants.

Follow me on my journey as I complete this project and maybe even win a prize, gain some sort of recognition, or maybe you'll just enjoy looking at the pretty pictures I produce! Either way, I hope you enjoy looking at my work and the comments I have to share.

Also, visit and join my facebook group - 3D Architecture

(ANIM) Urban Design - Revisited...

Every now and then I stumble upon a few old videos that conjure up fond memories of my progression up the architectural ladder. This one in particular was the culmination of a lot of hard work and a lot of team work.

Enjoy and reminisce...

Welcome

Welcome to Architecture4D .

I'll answer your question first of all - why 4D?.. well, we all know the 3 dimensions, x,y,z but none of these matter without the 4th dimension - Time.

Time intertwines with Architecture and Design, without it there wouldnt be any.

Keep an eye out for more posts!
