REFLECTION
Through this Architecture and Environment module, I have learned the considerations in the relationship between architecture and environment. I have also learned the importance of sustainability in the environment. This brought me to a new understanding of design. I really appreciated my tutor, Ms Suja, gave us a lot of inspiration on Architecture and Environment.
