The finished project should contain a resilient boardwalk system, a multi-use pavilion, ADA-compliant beach accesses, public art, shade structures, and restrooms.

“… because collage is a method deriving its virtue from its irony, because it
seems to be a technique using things and simultaneously disbelieving in them,
it is also a strategy which can allow utopia to be dealt as image, to be dealt in
with fragments without having to accept it in toto, which is further to suggest
that collage could even be a strategy which, by supporting the utopian illusion
of changelessness and finality, might even fuel a reality of change, motion,
action and history.” ROWE, Colin, KOETTER, Fred, “Collage City”, p.149, the MIT
press, 1983.
According to Schwarzer: “Today’s cities no longer make sense. Maybe they
should not make sense. Like post-modern society at large, cities are paradoxical
and ambiguous, constantly mutating under the impact of new life-styles,
fashions, technologies and view- points. They are the site of highly diverse
interactions, rapid ¯ fluctuations of capital, hazy physical boundaries and
seemingly irreconcilable architectural and urban movements.” SCHWARZER,
Mitchell, “The Contemporary City in Four Movements”, p.127, California College
of Arts and Crafts, 2010
We challenge you to creatively debate the city using the collage technique,
exposing a criticism/satire of the existing reality and/or an alternative proposal
to that reality.
This should go along with a short description of your proposal, no more than 150
words.
A “home” is a space that is intimate to all. Apart from being our safe haven, a home goes beyond its everyday function of being a shelter for its users and their activities; it connects with each of us on an emotional and personal level.

INTRODUCTION
Presentation skills are just as important as designing; one of the best mediums to present your architectural designs is through rendering. Architectural rendering aims to create life-like experiences of the buildings before they are built.
Rendering aids the designer to convey his or her ideas, an image that represents the designers' imagination most realistically.
