4 Tutorials Exercises: Architectural Graphics, Sketching and Tonal Values

These 4 tutorial exercises were so beneficial when I first started out my semester. It helped ease me into the next few projects, introducing me to the different rendering styles, architectural lettering, scales and floor plans etc.

T1: Self Expression

This first tutorial exercise allowed me to express creativity freely through geometric shapes. My inspiration came from space, more obviously, the sun.

T2: Hatching

This second exercise introduced the different hatching styles that I, then used to render my architectural drawings.

T3: Architectural Lettering

This tutorial definitely helped me developed my own architectural lettering style that I started using for all my next few projects and assignments.

T4: Scale and Colouring

This exercise was the first time I was introduced to drawing floor plans to different scales. I used 1:50 scale for this exercise. My colouring medium was watercolour.

REDO of T4: Scale & Colouring

I was given the chance to redo my floor plan. In this one, I decided to make the outside look neater with wood planks as floor instead of roads from my first floor plan.
