katalysator och sidospår - ett utforskande av skissprocessen

Tidigt under åren i arkitektskolan lär vi oss att forma och utforska våra egna kreativa processer. Dessa blir djupt personliga, och i detta projekt vill jag försöka formulera och utforska mitt sätt att arbeta. Under min studietid har jag upplevt att de största problemen jag haft under designprocessen varit att jag tenderat att bli för självkritisk i ett tidigt skede, vilket har resulterat i låsninIn the early years of architecture school, we learn to shape and explore our creative processes. These become deeply personal, and in this project I want to try defining and exploring my way of working. During my time as a student, I have experienced the biggest problems I had during the design process were that I tended to be too self-critical at an early stage, which resulted in blockages in the
