REFLECTION
As for this assignment, it is no doubt that I have learnt a lot about the classical architectures. What I really found fascinating when doing this assignment was researching about Egypt and Greek architecture. It blew may mind on how great people from that era could achieve to build such amazing buildings. It showed dedicated they are towards their gods and how those buildings were important to them.
​
What I find challenging from doing this assignment was the layout. My tutor wanted us to have a perfect layout that could easily be read by people with very minimal words. I struggle to put the information short but informative too, it took me plenty of time to think. Despite that, I am grateful to have my lecturers guidance and feedbacks every week when I attended tutorials.
