An interpretation of Joseph Conrad\u2019s Heart of Darkness was a key starting point.<\/p>\n<p>The project narrative begins in 1848 with the shipwreck of an outsider and it chronicles the evolution of the island and its society. Urban development evolves over a timeline of 150 years culminating with a citadel, the location for key civic and religious activities. The drawings, presented here in the style of a graphic novel, depict the protagonist Elisa Hecker\u2019s experience of architecture on the island. The final architectural proposition is the citadel constructed over the town.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding his time at Kent School of Architecture, James would like to thank his Unit 3 tutors Adam Cole, George Thomson and Tom Van Hoffelen who &#8216;were exceptional teachers, helping me to have the confidence, skills and ability to achieve a project I was proud of.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>A huge congratulations to James from all at KSA!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1517\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1517\" style=\"width: 545px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/files\/2017\/01\/jamesbussey_riba.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1517 \" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/files\/2017\/01\/jamesbussey_riba-694x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Chapter 8, The Model Worker by James Bussey\" width=\"545\" height=\"804\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/files\/2017\/01\/jamesbussey_riba-694x1024.jpg 694w, https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/files\/2017\/01\/jamesbussey_riba-203x300.jpg 203w, https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/files\/2017\/01\/jamesbussey_riba-768x1133.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/files\/2017\/01\/jamesbussey_riba-68x100.jpg 68w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 545px) 100vw, 545px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1517\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chapter 8, The Model Worker by James Bussey<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kent School of Architecture MArch student James Bussey received the Serjeant Award for Excellence in Drawing at Part 2 at the 2016 RIBA President\u2019s Medal &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/2016\/12\/07\/ksa-student-wins-at-riba-presidents-medals-ceremony\/\">Read&nbsp;more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":40592,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[158264],"tags":[174916,82550,26853,158454],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1515"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/40592"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1515"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1515\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1519,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1515\/revisions\/1519"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1515"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1515"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/ksa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1515"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
