SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE, BUILDING & DESIGN Research Unit for Modern Architecture Studies in Southeast Asia Foundation of Natural and Built Environments INTRODUCTION TO DRAWING (ARC 30103) Prerequisite: None Lecturers: Ida Marlina Mazlan, Normah Sulaiman, Paul _____________________________________________________________________ Project 2 (individual) Drawings Submission date : 12th June 2015 Introduction “It taught me that there are three versions of things: the one I see in my mind, and the one that carries onto the paper, and then what it ultimately becomes.” Lauren DeStefano, Sever Objectives

• Identify the fundamental principles, elements and techniques in drawing, design

process and drawing presentation skills.

• Demonstrate observation skills and be able to record, organize, interpret and describe a variety of issues via visual communications effectively.

Learning Outcome

• Identify the type of drawing representation

Tasks 1. Individual student required to chosen 2 objects and objects chosen must not be smaller than A5. Students are to sketch and conduct measurement of chosen objects. Objects chosen must consists a minimum of 3 different geometries surfaces. This would be included in the progress sheets submission that must be signed by respective tutors.

2.Then by using book references/ classroom tutorial, independently you are to explore the applications of Drawing Conventions and using the measurement from the observation you are to generate architectural drawings that clearly expressing the 3 dimensional objects.

Required Drawings:

1. ONE plan

2. TWO elevations

3. TWO sections

4. ONE detail drawing

5. ONE cover drawing

Each drawing must be legible and need to be completed with: Drawing details & information, Subtitle and Annotations/Note-taking. Incomplete work will receive marks of C- or below. Each drawing must have an appropriate SCALE. You are required to take/make notes based on your understanding of architectural drawings’ convention requirements to visualize the selected objects. The notes/annotations must be included as part of the drawings requirement and written clearly and neatly in the drawings. At all-time proper architectural lettering is mandatory.

Materials/Equipment

It is your responsibility to bring all necessary tools to facilitate your measurement, drawing and note-taking. Suggested drawing tools: A3 Paper (120 gm drawing paper or better); Butter paper; Art line pens (0.1, 0.3 & 0.5); Pencils (2B); Soft Eraser; Flexible Eraser; Erasing Shield; Architectural Scale Ruler; Set-square, T- Square or Parallel Ruler.

Plagiarism will be taken as a serious case and will result in failure of the subject

Submission Requirement Individual student required to submit the progress sheets that would consist a class activity drawings as well as :

• Draft drawings of the chosen 2 objects (at least 2 pages/object– exploration sketches)

• Measurements of the chosen 2 objects (1 page) These progress sheets must be stapled and signed by your respective tutors

• Progress sheets would be in the form of A4 butter papers

Then by using book references/ classroom tutorial, independently you are to explore the applications of Drawing Conventions and using the measurement from the observation you are to generate architectural drawings that clearly expressing the 3 dimensional objects in sets of A5 drawings, submitted in a set, according to a suggested packaging design

Required Drawings per object: 1. ONE plan 2. TWO elevations 3. TWO sections 4. ONE detail drawing 5. ONE cover drawing
