Reading list (suggested)
Read (for next class) the "The Art of Relevance." Focus on the sections below, but it's a short document and will make more sense just to read the entire work. At a minimum, however, read the chapter:https://artofrelevance.org/2016/06/20/a-walk-on-the-beach/.
Site report completion
Precedent and revision
Compile your findings into a document.
Take your findings, make any suggested revisions, add precedent images, and compile into a standalone document.
Add 6-20 relevant precedent images. Make sure to caption and credit them. Remember that precedent is meant to communicate a possible direction or concept, not to exactly match what you might later design. Make it clear to your audience why the precedent is included.
For every precedent image, note the source, and create a short caption explaining what it is an the relevance to your site. For example, don't simply state "A playground element shaped like a woodpecker." Instead, "Interpretive themes can be integrated in play structures" or something similar.
