Old Man of the Hague

There was an Old Man of the Hague

Whose ideas were excessively vague;

He built a balloon 

To examine the moon,

That deluded Old Man of the Hague. 

We were instructed to create smaller drawings during the orientation module, which were subsequently expanded into larger drawings. Initially, our group had created two sketches, one of which was centred on the moon's surface and texture and the other on a route to reach the moon. This collection of ideas taught us how to collaborate as a team, how to incorporate one another's ideas and pay attention to everyone's viewpoint, and how individuals with disparate ideas can come to an agreement to work towards facilitating the presentation of each person's perspective. It also made it possible for us to become closer as a class and meet new people. Putting both concepts together, we drew a huge heap of trash, which finally resulted in the moon attempting to depict the man's desire to reach the moon.  

We expanded on the concept of stacking based on these sketches. To get a better understanding of the concept of stacking, we first created toothpick models. In order to create a sturdy, livable structure, we examined a variety of materials that might be stacked. We learned how to select the appropriate material while keeping availability and pricing into account thanks to this search.In order to construct this construction, we employed the scaffolding approach, which taught us about the various kinds of knots and how they impact a structure's stability. We also learned how the scaffolding transfers weight and how each component of the structure is essential to its stability. Our intention was to show how the pile made an area that the viewer could move about in. The building reached a final height of 17.4 feet.
