Team Work!

Model Drawn to Scale:
This is our model in two parts. We made the pieces separately for mobile convenience. We also made them so that when placed properly outside the building, they can support each other.






Textures:

#1: The Ginkgo Leaf







#2: Solid Texture





#3: Foam Circles and Square



We divided up into groups for our "Living on the Edge" project. Different groups used different textures in our exploring phase of the project. The foam pieces were easiest to remove after our concrete casting process, however, the ginkgo leaves left a more interesting imprint on the concrete surface.

Perspective Drawings

Precedents






Above there are one-point, two-point, and three-point perspective drawings. Out of this set, the 3-point perspective was the hardest to draw because there was more to think about in the configuration of the horizontal and vertical lines.

Behavioral Patterns

Our group worked on behavioral patterns of the people outside of the building. We did a 24 hr watch of the exterior and parking lot area. This data shows the pedestrian walking patterns from the hours of 9:00am to 1:00pm outside of the Gateway Studio Arts building.

Practicing with Perspectives

Here are some perspective drawings that we have been working on in class. We are learning to draw one-point, two-point, and three-point perspectives as well as how to tell the difference between these when looking at architecture from different views.

Leaf Drawing

This is a drawing I worked on outside of class. I practiced using dots and patterns with my medium instead of using line strokes which is typical with most of my drawings. My inspiration came from the patterns that are shown in the elevation of the building drawing below.
