Architecture & building drawing
We are surrounded by buildings of all shapes and sizes. Some buildings are purely functional, built to a low-cost without any aesthetic consideration, and some are beautiful sculptures capable of inspiring those that live and work in them.
Buildings are more than just wood, bricks, glass and concrete, they are an expression of human aspiration.
In this unit, you will learn about the basic graphic processes surrounding architecture and construction drawings.
This includes a short video on making a model for architecture. It is one of my early videos and isn't very good. I'll hopefully update this at some point.
