and Principles
Taylors Graduate Capabilities
For this assignment, we were asked to design 6 models following with it's tattoo stamps based on the 5 elements- Materials, Line, Shape, Mass and Space. Along with the 16 Principles- Balance, Connection, Contrast, Emphasis, Form, Groping, Imagery, Meaning, Symbolism, Pattern, Placement, Proportion, Rhythm, Scale, Unity and Variety. These models were to have a dimension of 100mm x 100mm x 100mm. At the end of this assignment we had a verbal presentation to relate our ideas and concepts towards our assigned lecturer.

FINAL OUTCOME
PROJECT 2C: Perspectives
INTRODUCTION
This is the process of being able to translate a 2-dimensional image into a 3-dimensional drawing of 1 point and 2 point perspectives. Being able to draw perspectives is necessary in architecture as these drawings makes it easier to visualize the drawings.
TASKS
For this assignment, we were to draw 2 perspectives of Farnsworth House. A one-point perspective to show the sectional interior cut and a two-point perspective to draw the exterior of the building. We are to draw them by projecting it from our plan view from Assignment 2a. Before doing so, we had to enlarge our plan view to prevent the perspective drawing to becoming too small. Both of these drawings are to be drawn on a single piece of A2 cartridge paper followed by colouring it. we were given the choice to use any colouring medium.
FINAL OUTCOME
- ONE-POINT PERSPECTIVE -
- TWO-POINT PERSPECTIVE -
REFLECTION & TGC's
After the completion of assignment 2C, I believe that my skills in the knowledge of drawing perspective has improved. Besides that, my intrapersonal skills like my time management has improved greatly with the limited amount of time to do this assignment alongside with studio assignments. Overall, I believe that my skills in drawing perspectives has improved.
