Reaching

After over a month of nearly non-stop studio work,

(and non-stop bangin' of the ladies)

(just kidding)

(not really)

(...yeah, I am)

...I finally sat down to draw out of my own free will and came up with Reaching, a rather accidental abstract study of the human form. I didn't actually realize it was starting to take the shape of a body until I turned the drawing upside down, go figure. But I'm happy with it anyway:

Nope, I still only work on architecture things.

Haha I honestly haven't dedicated a single moment of my time since I've been here to a sketch/work that hasn't had to do with Viscomm or Design. 

Except this doodle, when I was SUPER BORED during a Viscomm lecture (slightly enhanced with iPhoto):

But this is cool: we were just assigned our first design project. That building that I had to study in the post below needs to be changed (we need to make an architectural intervention). 

This is the presentation I did for the Ferguson's existing conditions.

Annddd these are a few of my design proposals for the facade:

More architecture!

In that architecture course I mentioned earlier, we were assigned a particular side of a building on campus to pick apart, analyze, sketch, put back together, re-analyze, re-sketch, so on and so forth. Basically, we live and breathe this building for the next two weeks (or maybe more).

Anyway, this is the building I was assigned:

annnddd these are a few preliminary sketches/ an elevation and plan, freehand (aside from a straightedge on the second one). decent drawings, but most likely will be drawn two or three times over, in addition to more detailed ones. yay college!
