“Drawing is a form of communication with oneself and with others.” Alvaro Siza
As an elective, Architectural Drawing provided a good opportunity for me to consolidate my new communication skills into a form so vitally architectural.
I liked studying Rose Seidler House – the original setup at the site made it so easy to capture a mental picture of life within the home and how it was informed by the space.
I discovered the graphic style I had generated during the Atlas of Colour workshop translated well to black and white pen drawings. Also, the style complemented the late 1940s/early 1950s building well.
Further, the thread of arranging, navigating and narrating wound its way into architectural drawing. My composition of my A2 sheets was informed by the sequencing skills I had learnt in the previous workshops.
Creating presentation drawings and rendering them in my own unique way provided me with an opportunity to develop my own unique style, which I tried to express through each individual element of the workshop. Working to find a balance between the expression of suggestive and tangible forms is a skill that I hope to be able to use to communicate many future designs.
