Assignment title: Management


On the expression pot there is a pointed cone which sits on top of the pot, similarly to how the triangular monument Is positioned across the top of the cylindrical column and rectangular construction. Both 'La Conica' expression pot and monument to the partisans were designed by Aldo Rossi. In an interview with Antonio de Bonis, Rossi mentions his obsession on the triangle when studying at the Milan Politecnico, "for [him] that triangle [on his 1965 design] is the holy trinity. Hence why Rossi incorporated a triangular head on the monument to the resistance and later on the 1985 espresso pot. The Bauhaus sought a union of art and technology; Eleazar Lissitzky's c.1920. untitled work interlinks the geometry of Marianne Brandt's pot but the primary colours of the moka pot for Morinox. Lissitzky's ideas on art were taught at the Bauhaus school; having a background in engineering and architecture he knew the relationship between art and construction. The art in both pots lies in the composition of the geometric shapes which was significant in the Bauhaus style. In the same way other Bauhaus items like the teapot were designed to work well in addition to look good, so does the moka pot for Morinox; the aesthetics of the pots does not compromise their functionality. Contrary to the espresso pot by Also, where the steel, slender and sharp handle of the espresso pot would make the hold hot. One : Forms & Ideas Using a minimum of two pen-thicknesses and a maximum of three pen-thicknesses design a drawn analysis of the following problem. Make your drawings and diagrams crisp, clear and precise and write a short explanatory text of minimum 175-words to explain the argument you have set out in your drawings. Formal Precedents Complete your formal analysis of the two coffee pots discussed in the introductory lecture on 21st September. Draw this analysis up neatly and precisely. Two precedents are listed below - one for each of the coffee pots we have discussed. Add formal analytical drawings for each of these two precedents listed and include analytical drawings that explain how the form of these two preceding designs relate to the coffee pots that follow on from them. Precedents for study: Aldo Rossi, Monument to the Partisans, Segrate, 1965 Marianne Brandt, Coffee Pot, Bauhaus, 1924. Write a short text (minimum 175-words) explaining your analysis in the formal connections you see between these four designs. This text should declare your sources for your research into these two precedents. You should provide a minimum of two sources for each precedent and for each precedent one of these sources must be an academic article. Your references should be set out in UWE Harvard. For the purposes of this research Wikipedia is not considered an appropriate reference. Please bring this work to the next session on Wednesday 28th September for discussion.
