WE HAD TO UNDERSTAND FIRST THE SPACE AND SHOW IT IN OUR SKETCHES THROUGH SOLIDS AND VOIDS, LIGHT AND SHADOW, DETAILS, MATERIALS, SCALE AND PROPORTION AND OTHER ASPECTS.THANKS TO THIS PROJECT, I WAS ABLE TO DEVELOP MY DRAWING AND ALSO MY ABILITY OF OBSERVATIONESPECIALLY ON THE SITE.

PROJECT 2A: ORTHOGRAPHIC PROJECTIONS

PROJECT 2A IS ABOUT DRAFTING SKILLS IN MODERN AND TRADITIONAL METHODS OF ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING. WE HAD TO DO OUR OWN RESEARCH ON THE DIMENSIONS OFTHE BUILDING FIRST AND THEN START DRAFTING.I HAVE LEARNT ABOUT DRAWING FLOOR PLANS, ELEVATIONS, SECTIONS. I HAVE LEARNT ABOUT THE ARCHITECTURAL CONVENTIONS AND SYMBOLS AND THE SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPORTANCE OF PROPER LINE WEIGHT.

PROJECT 2B: AXONOMETRIC PROJECTION

FOLLOWING THE PROJECT 2A, WE HAVE FAIRLY AN IN-DEPTH UNDERSTANDING OF THE ARCHITECTURAL DETAIL AND SPATIAL VALUE OF EAMES HOUSE. IN THIS SECOND PART OF THIS PROJECT, USING OUR KNOWLEDGE ON EAMES HOUSE, WE HAVE LEARNT HOW TO GENERATE AN EXTERNAL AND SECTIONAL AXONOMETRIC PROJECTION AND HOW TO APPLY THEM TO THE DESIGN PROCESS AND PRESENTATION.
BASICALLY USING THE FLOOR PLAN POSITIONED AT AN ANGLE OF 45 DEGREES TO THE HORIZONTAL LINE, WE THEN PROJECTED THE HEIGHT TO OBTAIN THE THREE DIMENSIONAL SHAPE.

PROJECT 2C: PERSPECTIVE DRAWING

THE FINAL ASSIGNMENT GIVEN TO US WAS TO EXPRESS SPATIAL IDEAS AND ARCHITECTURAL DETAIL IN THREE-DIMENSION, IN THE FORMAT OF ONE-POINT AND TWO-POINTS PERSPECTIVES. I LEARNT THE UNDERSTANDING OF PERSPECTIVE AND HOW TO GENERATE THEM AND HOW TO APPLY THEM TO THE DESIGN PROCESS AND PRESENTATION.
