REFLECTION

During this environment design project, I experienced a wide range of emotions. At the beginning, I felt overwhelmed by the complexity of the task and the need to create a cohesive and visually compelling environment. There were moments of frustration, particularly when initial concepts didn’t work as planned or failed to convey the intended mood. However, as the project progressed and elements began to align, I experienced a growing sense of accomplishment. Completing the final designs—both interior and exterior—brought a deep sense of satisfaction and pride, knowing the effort had paid off.

The challenges in this project were significant but valuable for my growth. One of the main hurdles was ensuring consistency across all assets, including detailed carvings, paintings, and atmospheric elements. It required careful planning and countless revisions to harmonize the various components while preserving the narrative essence of the design. Another major challenge was managing time effectively to complete day and night versions of the exterior and finalize the interior, all while maintaining high-quality standards.

Looking forward, I aim to build on these experiences by focusing on three key areas. First, I plan to refine my technical skills, especially in digital rendering and lighting techniques, to further enhance the depth and realism of my designs. Second, I intend to expand my understanding of storytelling through design, ensuring that every element contributes meaningfully to the overall narrative. Lastly, I will work on improving my time management by creating more structured workflows, which will help me balance creativity with efficiency in future projects.

This project was both a challenge and a milestone in my design journey, providing lessons that will undoubtedly influence my future work.

Principle of continuation : The human eye prefers to see a continuous flow of visual elements rather than separated objects. Principle of closure : The human eye will fill in missing visual information when the shape is incomplete. Principle of proximity : The process of ensuring related design elements are placed together . Principle of figure/ground : Objects are in the foreground or the background . Law of symmetry & order : This law states that elements that ar...

I have gained an understanding of how to analyze others' works, comprehend design concepts, and implement the knowledge gained in my own creations.  I enjoy the process of creation, exploring different mediums and techniques to express my ideas, which I find immensely enjoyable. Experimenting with various design methods leaves me feeling fulfilled and happy. However, compared to the hands-on aspect of creating designs, I find the theoretical aspects of design, such as learning design principles, somewhat dull and obscure. Although these theoretical aspects are important, they can...
