Sketch-Up tryout

I had a little difficulty using the guide lines, but besides that everything was pretty clean and easy to understand. I'm still not a big fan because it just doesnt any personality to it. I feel like hand rendering something like this would bring more attention to it.

Sleeping Quarters

Here are a few examples of sleeping spaces that you may not have thought about, or maybe you have.



Above are a few bulb-shaped tents that hang down from the trees.



Micro compact home. The ideal sleeping location of my choice, small, sustainable, and very portable. Everything you need you can just fold right out of the walls, or the ground. If you ask me, I think we could conserve resources by having everyone live in something like this, because how much space do we really "need"?

No its not a spaceship, however your kids might be pleased to know this is a tree house. The clever and simple design makes this successful.

If your homeless you might consider your options a little more carefully.

Whether your a space geek or not this design is very modern and futurist like, however it does not lose the quality of comfort.

Foust Presentation Board

First off, I would really like to thank everyone that helped us with this board. I was pleased the way it came out, however, I thought there were a ffew kinks in it. One of which was the presentation of the black against this olive green color. I looked good up close but you cannot see it from a distance. I felt like the thumbnails could have had a contrasting strip behind them to push them out a little more, or even what Tommy said with bringing them up farther so that the title would run perpendicular to the thumbnails. Overall, it was a real struggle but I learned quite a few things from it, and brought that into my studio midterm presentation.

Doors/Windows, Drawing

Here were some more technical drawings of doors and windows. I was pleased with my lettering however, the guide lines were a little dark.

Fisher house from Ching Book

This is a drawing of the floor plan from the Ching book. I thought that the orange poche would turn out well, but when I made the copy it did not appear as well as the black poche would.

My Drawings/Attempts:



Drawing of a hallway through the Foust building trying to utilize Jakes vanishing point. Here in the picture the vanishing point is not visible which made it alot harder for me to draw. I'm pretty sure I did not hit the style right on, but maybe alot more practice and I'll have the concept done correctly.


Here I utilize the second pen and ink technique, but instead I added another form of media to it so that the black's would come out alot bolder.


A drawing of the exterior of the Foust building. Some of the picture was cut off because I ran out of space. I would expect to do more shading in the future so that the drawing will pop out more in a 3 dimensional way.
