My Own Journal

These are layouts I proposed, the circulation, space programming, furniture layout, floor finish plan and section drawing.

Since my laptop is broken and I'm still waiting for repairment, I did my progress manually by providing the sketches.

 In the first week, I made what's concept I want to apply and the space programming.

Since I'm changing my whole idea from chocolate world tour becoming chocomed, I kind of lacking in research. Chocomed is a project to introduce chocolate as medicine. Its purpose is to change people's perspective on chocolate. Chocolate often to be seen as negative food current days, but in fact, chocolate is a nutritional food with many values for body. Through this project, people are given chance to learn and educate them about chocolate and how they can process it for healthier option. This is my final board for Chocomed.
