My name is Sehaj. I study civil engineering with architecture at UNSW. I don’t want to scare you away! But I prefer you experience this blog personally and intimately. I post for expression, and your viewing pleasure, it’s quite exiting! This will grow as I do, so I extend you an invitation take a look around, make yourselves at home and interact, with what’s on show!


To those of you kind enough, I invite you to click the posts and read between the lines(literally!)

Hi! My name is Sehaj. I study civil engineering with architecture at UNSW. I am slowly increasing my sentence length for your comfort. As this description goes on my sentences will exponentiate, becoming increasingly complex and intricately detailed. But until then I write simply. This is because I don’t want to scare you away! As we progress, I’d have you note the decreasing formalcy of my tone. Cause I’d prefer you experience this blog personally and intimately. As is my intention, even with this description.

It’s all a bit of an experiment really, an experiment… in expression! That’s why I chose this minor, and why I write, and I post. For expression, and your viewing pleasure. What you’re seeing is my architecture portfolio, a sort-of time-capsule of work, to be dug up future. Perhaps this will chart a journey towards sophistication as a designer, perhaps it will remain an ethereal reminder of university reveries … either way, it’s quite exiting!

There is a uniqueness here. Whilst here, is lack of stagnancy. It will grow as I do, presenting new surprises for you, the reader.This is an invitation into my frantic life, potentially providing insights about the unique challenges and experiences a within design school from a normal, outsider’s perspective. So please, take a look around, make yourselves at home and interact, with what’s on show!


Here's a picture of the person who started this, many others will follow and (hopefully)
 ensure this description remains unchanged from when this blog was fisrt begun.

Design Journal 08/03/2020

Begun translating mys section into a 3D Design, currently the exterior of the upper floor and gallery is complete. Two Stairs need to be either redesgined or added, and lansdcape modelling is incomplete. Basic progression in the build is shown through the images below. The following section has been chosen for construction. Diffuse Striation The hexagonal dome was the most obious part of the section and so was intially constructed, a smaller dome being madw within to act as a sort of photography studio for the Kyza. The stright parts of the section were elongated into a trapezoidal shape to accomodate a geodesic structure at the edge. The edges expand to emphasise the experience of the widening of the space and the panoramic views of the landscape offered. The first floor was similarly articulated with basic geometric shapes and considerations for natural lighting through galss windows.  To increase the complexity of the stuructre curves were added into the roof  to metonomise...

Week 5 models Redone

In this blog post I detail my procedure for making various architectural models of my room at different scales and through different media through snapshots of the design process. Whilst initial models were made for this task, they seemed to be messy and inadequate as reflections of my skill, and so were remade as follows. The card model 1:20, the cardboard model 1:10 and the paper model 1:50, respectively have their construction shown below . Please take time to read the text and use the images as a flip book, a sort of timelapse detailing the construction. Card Model The first task allowed for the construction of a paper/card model, initially a paper model was made but it became flimsy for proper photography, hence a new one made of card was constructed. Due to isolation restrictions all materials used were recycled, with the main white card being old manilla folders , other materials included cling wrap and recycled advertising sheets. This model is made on a 1: 20 sca...
