Assignment 2:
Farnsworth House
1 building, 3 materials.
Draw 7 technical drawings of the Farnsworth House
Precedent study
I studied and researched on the Farnsworth House to understand the different perspectives before starting with any drawings
AutoCAD​
​
I decided to do my orthographic drawings in AutoCAD for a new experience as I've already done manual orthographic in FNBE. It was fairly easy to pickup with hotkeys and my tutor's workshop on it
Axonometry Draft​
​
It was my first time drawing an axonometry, and it was easy for me to pick up thanks to the lectures. I did my draft on butter paper, and transferred it to cartridge paper later on
Perspective drafts​
​
It was my first time drawing perspective as well. It was tricky to start at first, but when I got a hang of it, it was easy to understand
Rendering​
​
Rendering using my felt tip pens was done for my perspectives to show material textures and landscaping
Final Work
Reflection
Perspective on
online learning
We had pre-recorded lectures and tutorials which were very thorough and was done step-by-step. They were recorded with much patience as well
Self-Reflection on
the journey
This assignment gave me an opportunity to explore with AutoCAD which I've always wanted to learn for a long time. It also thought be to think independently in terms of drawing conventions
Perspective on tutor and module coordinator
My module coordinator was Dr. Lia and my tutor was Mr. Adib. Dr. Lia was very fun and initiated engaging ways for us to fall in love with drawing and sketching. Mr. Adib provided detailed and observant comments as well
