I am a ‘STEAM’ Architect (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Mathematics).

Introducing Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Maths (STEAM) in architectural design.

Design brief: Include STEAM principles and concepts into a spatial design presentation (Context-fictional display at a Museum, NZ).

Lesson resource for students and teachers (Secondary School).

Design briefs Spatial Design (Design and Visual Communication – NZ): DESIGN BRIEFS: Level 1 – Sustainable Sleepout, Level 2 – Art Science Museum, Level 3 – Unique Sustainable Bach.

DESIGN BRIEF LEVEL 1: Design a Sustainable sleepout from 3 shipping containers. Exhibit and display your STEAM (e.g. biomimetics application/sunflower) design work in a room at the Waikato Museum.

DESIGN BRIEF LEVEL 2: Design an Art Science Museum. Location – anywhere in the world. Exhibit and display your STEAM (e.g. biomimetics application/sunflower) design work in a room at the Waikato Museum.

DESIGN BRIEF LEVEL 3: Design a Unique Sustainable Bach. Location – anywhere in the world. Exhibit and display your STEAM (e.g. biomimetics application/sunflower) design work in a room at the Waikato Museum.

Situation:

As an architect, you are given an exhibition/display room at the Waikato Museum (size – 6 m x 10 m). As a STEAM Architect, plan the exhibition of your design work (sleepout/museum/bach). Show the planning using freehand sketches with annotations of the display. Indicate the areas for an interactive model, posters of your design work (communicating STEAM concepts) – show biomimetics, and more. The focus is on your biomimetic applications and STEAM features and functions.
