    • Submission date: Friday 18.8.2017, 16:00 pm

    OBJECTIVES
    The objectives of this assignment are to develop:
    • Your ability to conduct a literature review and synthesise information
    • Your ability to understand and describe buildings
    • Your skills in clear, effective written communication, employing recognised academic and professional
    conventions.
    • Your skills in citing and referencing the resources correctly following academic and professional conventions
    • Your skills in visual analysis
    • Your ability to identify scholarly research
    CONTENT
    For this essay, you will be assigned one building or a project from those included in the list provided at the end of
    this document. Your assigned building can be found in Canvas. You are required to introduce that building through
    formulating FOUR questions and providing answers for them.
    Each answer has to be at least 100 words and the questions have to be broad enough to cover a range of
    descriptions. For instance, ‘who is the architect?’ is not broad enough to cover a 100 words response. Instead, you
    might ask ‘what is the relationship between the architect of this building and the dominant architectural style of his/her
    time?’ Each question has to target a specific aspect of the building and the answer has to describe that aspect. The
    whole body of four questions and answers have to present a comprehensive description of the building. To be able
    to describe a building, you will need to find exterior and interior photographs, floor plan/s and, ideally, sectional
    drawings (i.e. a cross-section and/or a longitudinal section). It is expected that the assignment addresses all these
    points:
    • Introductory information
    Name of the building, designer, client, location, type of building
    • Siting, urban context and landscape
    Relation of building with its physical context and the wider landscape, architect’s strategy in relation to the
    site.
    • Exterior form and materials
    Exterior form and appearance of the building, materials being used externally, external architectural
    expression, proportion, window arrangement.
    • Planning and circulation
    Planning of the building, type of activities taking place, entrance, circulation, public/private relation, internal
    and external activities.
    • Interior spaces and materials
    Main interior spaces, their scale, proportion, materials, colour, the detailing of floors, walls, ceilings, doors
    and windows, the quality of light and, the quality of acoustics, natural/artificial light, furniture.
    REFRENCE
    Acknowledgement of sources is an important aspect of academic writing. The University’s Referen©ite website
    www.cite.auckland.ac.nz provides students with a one-stop online resource for academic referencing needs.
    Referen©ite explains the essentials of referencing and how to avoid plagiarism. It also includes practical tools to help
    students reference correctly and use references effectively in writing, and presents examples of the various different
    referencing formats.
    SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS
    • This is an individual assignment.
    • Essay must be written on a computer.
    • A4 format, portrait, with simple top left staple (i.e. no spiral binding; no plastic sleeve);
    • Essay must employ footnotes at the bottom of each page and include a bibliography, both formatted
    according to the Chicago referencing style.
    • Total word length, excluding questions, captions, footnotes and bibliography: 800-1000 words.
    • Give the word count at the end of your essay.
    • Illustrate your essay with relevant images, including plans, sections and/or photographs. Splice your images
    into your text, i.e. do not present them as an appendix. Every image must have a caption immediately under
    it or just to one side of it. The caption should say what the image is of (briefly), and should then identify the
    source for the image using the footnote format for short citations, i.e. author’s surname, short title and page
    number if you take it from a book or journal. Include the full reference in your bibliography.
    • Give consideration to how the final assignment looks like, that is the photographs are places beautifully
    within the text and the captions are placed in an appropriate place with a readable font-size.
    • Full documentation (footnotes, bibliography and sources of illustrations) is essential. If your writing is
    unreferenced, you will not pass.
    • Plagiarism will lead to failure – use your own words, except when using direct quotations.
    • Read through and edit your essay several times before submission. You might read it out for yourself or ask
    a friend to read it for you. This will help with editing.
    • You are required to submit both a hardcopy (paper copy) of your assignment and an electronic copy. The
    deadline for hard-copy and electronic copy is the same.
    • Attach a School of Architecture and Planning Assignment Cover Sheet to the hardcopy. Before you submit,
    you must fill out the Cover Sheet and sign it.
    • Submit your electronic copy directly in Canvas.
    • Upload you assignment only as a Word File (doc).
    • You cannot submit multiple file uploads. Make sure the files being uploaded is the correct version.
    • You cannot resubmit your assignment or submit the assignment past the due date.
