Achievement Achievement with Merit Achievement with Excellence
Produce freehand sketches that communicate design ideas.
The candidate’s design ideas will explore and communicate the use, purpose (function) or visual appeal of their design, including the use of:
2D views
3D form using isometrics, perspective, oblique or planometric drawing methods
sketching techniques, such as: quick rendering, crating, and the use of line hierarchy.
Produce freehand sketches that clearly communicate design ideas.
The candidates designs will be that of the criteria for Achievement and will also show:
proportion
detail, eg, construction, structure, use and operation (function)
shape, form, and finish (aesthetics).
Produce freehand sketches that effectively communicate design ideas.
The candidate’s designs will show in-depth visual information that:
conveys the intent (meaning/purpose) of the design ideas
is in the form of related sketches, eg, exploded views, sectional, sequential, detail, assembly, etc.
Find your own style - don't compare your drawing to anyone else's , you are you, no one else!
Don't be afraid to be messy You want your drawings to show that
you like the design (even if you don't!) HAVE FUN WITH THE DRAWINGS AND
TRY NEW THINGS Your drawings don’t have to be perfect!
Eric Mendelsohn's Einstein Tower Sketch Loose style - the sketch contains energy
and expresses the idea Heavy lines help 3D look of drawing, can
give the idea of shadow
Frank Ghery's sketch for Walt Disney Concert hall and the reality.
Very loose and energetic
Series of sketches show thought process
Style of sketch suits the end look of the building
Le Corbusier’s Villa Savoie What pictorial view has been used? More realistic looking drawing than earlier slides Shadow enhances 3D look
Leonardo Da Vinci flying machine sketches
Most of the information is conveyed in the drawing with a few notes
Pen drawings and uses hatching for shadow
Colour helps to define shape and show materials being suggested
These are all detail drawings to show how this design goes together - can you figure it out?
Don't rub any lines out –- all lines are useful
You want your designs to show what you think of them –- you are supposed to be selling your ideas!
Use details of small area i.e. buttons to help explain your idea
Remember that you want the viewer to understand the scale of the item, how it is used etc
Include hands or other relevant items to help show this
Crating to help work out proportion
Close ups of details
Splashes of colour
Using coloured pencils to sketch your designs gives them a more construction like feel.
Overlap images and elongate them or stretch them to show feeling of object
Sequential drawings show how your design works.
Don’t be afraid to try out new ideas Overlap the sketches - they don’t have
to be perfect, the aim is to show your ideas. When we are thinking we don’t think in a straight line.
Add colour by using markers or pencil or by drawing on pieces of coloured paper.
Add texture through shading or textures on coloured papers.
Look through the book called SKETCHING and find a style you like and copy it.
Remember that it is said that:A PICTURE PAINTS A THOUSAND WORDS What do your pictures say? Are they easy to understand? Ask a friend to look at your sketches
and tell you what (if anything) is missing from it
Enjoy the process as much as possible!
