March into our March holiday workshop ; "Draw me a House!"

“Draw me a house!” and the child whipped out a drawing of his dream house within a mere ten minutes.

In reality, it is a much more elaborate process for the architect before he comes out with a design of a house.

Step into the shoes of the architect and learn about the stages of design development an architect goes through before coming up with a design for a house.

In this 2-day workshop, participants will be guided through the various steps an architect takes in design development, from developing a design brief to design sketch exploration to preparing drawings and making a model of the house. As the children learn to use and create 2d floor plans to represent 3 dimensional spaces, they will inherently develop a sense of scale in their attempt to relate to the built environment using their human body. 

At the end of the workshop, each one will get to bring home their dream house floor plan and model as well as a mini experience of being an architect!

Skyscraper workshop update

Our skyscraper workshop ended off on a good note! The children enjoyed themselves and went home with their prideful skyscraper structures and drawings together with some worthy experience! From learning to manage the risks with use of glue guns to problem solving how to make their design structurally stable and acquiring some architectural concepts along the way, they made it and we can tell that they were proud of their own achievements!

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

Everyone loves the gingerbread house for one good reason! You can eat it as and when you feel like it just like Hansel and Gretel. But how different can it get other than the fact that it is made from sugary sweet candies and cookies?

Let our children amaze us with their creativity in creating their versions of gingerbread houses with a modern twist! 

SO, what will the children be making their houses out of?

Sweets, Biscuits and cookies, of course! 

The workshop is split into two sessions, one for 5-7 year olds and the other for 8-10 year olds. The younger children will be involved in making their own gingerbread house while the older children will have a take on creating their imaginary city on a collaborative scale using their individually created gingerbread house. 

The session is intended to provoke children’s imagination and allow them to explore the world through their senses. By picking a medium of architecture that they will have great delight seeing and playing with, we hope to inspire them to create a tastefully playful architecture. Have Fun!
