Become familiar with the architectural language of plan, section, and elevation. These are the words which architects employ to describe architectural projects and spaces.
In this project, you will be asked to unravel the object from the beginning to the end. You will make drawings that describe the selected object. Drawings should be executed in a 2-D program such as AutoCAD or the draft mode in Form-Z.
In order that the objects are drawn faithfully to the way you see them, a method must be developed by each student to measure, map and draw the object. The subjectivity of your point of view is an important part of your observations and documentation. For that reason, it is crucial that your method be consistent throughout the drawing exercise. Be thoughtful and consistent about the construction of your drawing. Develop a series of line weights that describe your object.
