REFLECTION
Project 1 - Reflecting on my project , I had a very enjoyable experience visiting the site. I also gained valuable insights into the unique characteristics of the street and its cultural significance. Creating a sketch journal has allowed me to appreciate the small details that would not normally be observed. This project has also deepened my understanding of the importance of preservation of historical contexts in this modernized world.
​
Project 2 - This project has helped me improve my research skills as this project required us to find research based on our research problem. This project has helped me with my collaborative skills as well.
