FREEHAND DRAWING Flashcards
ESSENTIAL FOR ARCHITECTS TO QUICKLY CONCEPTUALIZE AND COMMUNICATE DESIGN IDEAS. IT COMBINES ARTISTRY WITH PRECISION, FOCUSING ON CLARITY AND PROPORTION TO ENSURE FUNCTIONALITY AND AESTHETIC
APPEAL.
Freehand Drawing
THE ARRANGEMENT AND ORGANIZATION OF DESIGN ELEMENTS IN A DRAWING TO CREATE A HARMONIOUS VISUAL PRESENTATION
Composition
Key Concepts of Composition
Hierarchy
Balance
Scale and Context
Visual Flow
USE ELEMENTS LIKE SIZE, LINE WEIGHT, AND DETAIL TO EMPHASIZE IMPORTANT PARTS OF THE DESIGN, SUCH AS THE MAIN
STRUCTURE OR ENTRANCE,
Hierarchy
ACHIEVE EQUILIBRIUM IN THE LAYOUT (SYMMETRICAL OR
ASYMMETRICAL) TO CREATE VISUALLY STABLE DESIGNG SCALE AND CONTEXT: INCLUDE SURROUNDING ELEMENTS, SUCH
Balance
INCLUDE SURROUNDING ELEMENTS, SUCH AS
TREES, PEOPLE, OR VEHICLES, TO CONTEXTUALIZE THE STRUCTURE
WITHIN ITS ENVIRONMENT
Scale and Context
GUIDE THE VIEWER’S EYE THROUGH THE DRAWING USING LEADING LINES, CURVES, OR PERSPECTIVE POINTS
Visual Flow
GUIDE THE VIEWER’S EYE THROUGH THE DRAWING USING LEADING LINES, CURVES, OR PERSPECTIVE POINTS
Visual Flow
THE ACCURATE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE SIZE, SCALE, AND PLACEMENT OF ELEMENTS WITHIN THE DRAWING
Proportioning
What are the key techniques of Proportioning
Reference Line
Perspective
Human Scale
Measurement Techniques
USE LIGHT GUIDE LINES TO MAP OUT PROPORTIONS BEFORE DETAILING
Reference Lines
MAINTAIN CONSISTENT VANISHING
POINTS AND HORIZON LINES TO REPRESENT THREE - DIMENSIONAL SPACES ACCURATELY
Perspective
NCLUDE HUMAN FIGURES TO ENSURE THE DESIGN FEELS PRACTICAL AND RELATABLE
Human Scale
THE USE OF TONAL VARIATIONS TO DEPICT LIGHT, SHADOW, AND DEPTH IN A DRAWING
Shading
Key techniques of Shading
Light Source Identification
Value Range
Hatching And Cross-Hatching
Blending
Material Representation
Depth Perception
DECIDE THE DIRECTION AND INTENSITY
OF LIGHT TO PLACE HIGHLIGHTS AND SHADOWS ACCURATELY.
Light Source Identification
USE A SPECTRUM OF TONES (LIGHT, MEDIUM, AND DARK) TO CREATE DEPTH AND CONTRAST,
Value Range
EMPLOY PARALLEL OR INTERSECTING LINES FOR TEXTURE AND TONAL VARIATION
Hatching and Cross-Hatching
USE BLENDING TOOLS (FINGERS, TISSUE, OR BLENDING STUMPS) FOR SMOOTH TRANSITIONS IN SHADING
Blending
APPLY SHADING TECHNIQUES THAT REFLECT THE TEXTURE OF MATERIALS (E.G., SMOOTH FOR GLASS, ROUGH FOR CONCRETE).
Material Representation
DARKEN FOREGROUNDELEMENTS AND LIGHTEN BACKGROUND ELEMENTS TO EMPHASIZE SPATIAL DEPTH.
Depth Perception
