CAREER DISCOVERY 2012 REPRESENTATION Lead Faculty: Anthony Piermarini Architecture: Liwen Zhang Jennifer Esposito Sky Milner Stacy Morton Landscape Architecture: Lisl Kotheimer Urban Planning and Design: Teresa McWalters Nicholas Potts Sketchbook Assignment #1 – Line and Shape Part 1: In your sketchbook, plan out the orthographic drawings for Day 1 Exercise Part 2: drawing 3D to 2D. You will be drafting the formal assignment on 18x24 vellum, so begin by sketching a rectangle that represents your sheet of vellum. Next, sketch where you will place a 10”x10” plan, a 10”x3” section, and a 10”x3” elevation. Finally, sketch aspects of your model that you will want to include in your orthographic drawings (the 2 main spaces, the section cut line, major walls or voids). See attached diagram. Once you have completed the sketch you are ready to begin your orthographic drawing on vellum! Part 2: Choose two trees in Harvard Yard that you find most interesting to compare (or use the species you have chosen for your Week 1 studio project). In your sketchbook you will utilize two spreads to begin to describe some of the defining physical characteristics of the two chosen tree species. Pedagogical Objectives: practice freehand sketching and drawing from real objects advance understanding of various tree species and their defining characteristics Instructions: (please read this completely before beginning) You will have one spread (2 pages) for each tree species. Each spread should include at least 3 sketches as follows: A: A sketch that illustrates the form /outline of the tree; What is the approximate height of the tree in feet? B: A 11 scale (actual size) detail sketch of the leaves, stems, flowers, seeds, etc; What is the approximate measurement of a leaf in inches? C: A sketch of the bark texture; What is the diameter of the trunk in inches? Refer to the list of tree species provided by your studio instructors: Pin Oak Honey Locust Ginkgo Dogwood White Pine Metasequoia Due Date and Time:
