Hardware

















For this drawing we were asked to draw architectural hardwares that we saw around the building. When we found the 3 that we wanted to draw, we then had to decide what three different techniques we wanted to use to draw the hardwares 3 different ways. Overall I enjoyed this assignment.

UNITY


This became my final Unity project. As you can see
what I was explaining in the sketch model, I feel that
the three holes created by the paper represent unity.

UNITY SKETCH MODELS


For the Unity Project this was my very first model.
The project consisted of 12 pieces of 4 x 6 paper and
12" Skewers. When putting the paper together I realized
that I didn't like how unity was portrayed. I thought that
the spaces between the paper showed the unity, however
the skewers didnt really have a place.

Keeping the same basic shape that was made up by the
skewers I decided to do something different with the paper.
However, I didnt like this idea either because the paper
seemed to just on the skewers.

This model I didn't get a chance to finish. A place for
the 4 x 6 paper was not easy to find in this model. I think
that to make it easier I should've made a module and then
place them all together to get this same shape.

This is the last sketch model I did. It was my favorite
because it was abstract but at the same time it represented
unity. You can see in my final model that the three holes formed
by the 4 - 4 x 6 paper are what create unity.

UNITY GRAPHICS



For the final unity project we were suppose to create a graphic as well as different views of our project. The different views were Elevation, gesture, contour and top.

Twig and Cellphone Graphics









Suzanne's class was very interesting to me. First we took a twig and a cellphone and drew 16 views of each. From these 32 drawings we had to 64 for the twig and 64 for the cellphone. Thinking that this was the end we took one twig square and one cellphone square and created 32 drawings with both cellphone and twig combined. From these 32 we looked into the drawings even further creating 16 drawings. From these 16 we created 8 more graphic drawings which led us to conclude with 4- 9x9 square.

Compare/Contrast



When looking at my classmates project I realized that we had certain things that were similar. One way was how she grouped the paper, which was by fours. Also when doing my project I always thought about keeping a triangular shape; the same way she has her triangular shapes coming out from the center creates the same idea that I had when I started my project. Even though this project does have some similarities it is also different. My paper was put on the skewers flatly, where as her paper she folded it to create cylinder shapes that surround each there. When looking at the skewers you see that they are all going one direction. Her skewers point to one way in particular leads your eyes to go towards that direction. Another difference is how she doubled skewers to create the base of her project. When I put my base together I used three skewers to create the triangular base that my project sits on. The last difference I see in her project is how the skewers stick through the center of the cylinders to keep them up. In my project the skewers on the side keep up the paper.
