Student in this phase of design students will be taking the information’s gathered and through the fields of survey they will create 2-3 or several options for consideration. They will study, analyse and further develop these ideas and options through the use of sketches, diagrams and study models to visualize different routes and approaches to the project.

2. Consider and include expanded aspects of design development in tandem with the design of spaces, e.g. regulatory requirements, fire safety, materials, construction/buildability, sustainability, feasibility and other relevant considerations, wherever possible, integrating their development to produce a richer, more multi-layered design.
