PROJECT 2
FARNSWORTH HOUSE (40% INDIVIDUAL)
TASK:
This task requires making architectural sketches by hand, showcasing both 2D and 3D aspects using techniques like orthographic projections, axonometry, and perspective views. These sketches should encompass plans, elevations, sections, axonometric views, and perspectives, all presented on A3 drawing paper. The completed submission must feature precise labeling, annotations, symbols, and legible architectural handwriting.
P2A : ORTHOGRAPHIC DRAWING
- Floor Plan
- Two Elevations
- Section
P2B: AXONOMETRY DRAWING
P2C : PERSPECTIVES DRAWINGS
- One-point perspective
- Two-point perspective
Engaging in this project has been crucial for enhancing my understanding of creating impactful drawings. I gained valuable insights into the significance of line weight, realizing its importance in conveying thickness in 2D drawings. Exploring techniques like axonometric drawing, one-point perspective, and two-point perspective expanded my drawing skills. Learning how to hatch for texture and effectively create shadows added depth to my drawings. These newfound skills, alongside other fundamental drawing knowledge acquired during this project, lay a solid foundation essential for my future endeavors. Overall, the project has been a significant step in developing my drawing proficiency and knowledge.
Discipline Specific Knowledge:
Engaging in this project has significantly enriched my discipline-specific knowledge in the field of architectural drawing. Exploring techniques such as orthographic projections, axonometry, and perspectives has deepened my understanding of the intricacies involved in creating detailed and accurate architectural sketches. Learning about line weight and its role in representing thickness in 2D drawings has honed my precision and attention to detail.
Intrapersonal Skills:
This project has been instrumental in enhancing my intrapersonal skills. The meticulous labeling, annotations, and clear architectural handwriting required for the final submission demanded a high level of self-discipline and organizational skills. Effectively managing my time and resources to produce a comprehensive set of drawings has not only refined my technical abilities but also reinforced the importance of personal discipline in the creative process. Overall, this project has been a valuable blend of technical knowledge and personal development.
