Project 2 (Individual)

SKETCHING ANALYSIS

Brief

In this assignment, we delve into a research analysis of carefully chosen historical architectural sites, employing a combination of sketching techniques, literature review, and documentation. The ultimate aim is to articulate a finely crafted synthesis of sketches, chronology, and diagram analysis that reflects a nuanced understanding acquired through a thorough exploration of these significant sites.

Task

Conducting thorough research and architectural analysis, we've meticulously documented five heritage buildings. This comprehensive documentation spans design philosophy, historical facts, architects, and other relevant details. The culmination of our efforts is a carefully crafted A4 sketches booklet in vibrant color, providing a visually captivating and informative journey through these architectural treasures.

OUTCOME

REFLECTION

Engaging with the sketch analysis assignment in my Architectural History and Theory module was a captivating exploration, seamlessly weaving together visual artistry and intellectual stimulation. Sketching iconic architectural marvels from diverse eras and regions not only refined my artistic skills but also provided a unique lens into the evolving design principles across various cultures and historical epochs. Each pencil stroke became a narrative, capturing the essence of structures that have left an indelible mark on the architectural landscape. This hands-on experience allowed me to immerse myself in the nuanced details, spatial arrangements, and unique features that characterized each marvel. Throughout this process, a profound appreciation for the craftsmanship and innovation transcending temporal and geographical boundaries blossomed. The assignment unfolded as a jubilation of architectural diversity, fostering an enriched awareness of the global significance these structures bear. As I compiled my sketches, I unveiled the profound impact architecture exerts in shaping societies and imprinting a lasting legacy on the collective human experience. Beyond a mere exploration of aesthetics, this assignment metamorphosed into a transformative odyssey, intimately connecting me with the expansive and diverse legacy of architectural excellence worldwide.
