I enjoyed this project as I could clearly see an improvement in my skills from the beginning of the semester to now. Learning rendering skills along with drawing and presentation techniques has definitely helped further my knowledge in this major.Planning through the adjacency matrix and bubble diagram helped me immensely when understanding the spacial concepts I wanted in

I wanted to make my programming within the same colors that may be seen in the cafe. I believe this will help my presentation quality. I struggled when finding a place for the lounge and study area since it needs to be separated from loud areas such as the cash register and the coffee and creamer bar. Over

Bean There Coffee Company is a fun, and whimsical café for students to study, gather and escape from the hustle and bustle of their studious lives. Inspired by a backyard or alley of sorts, customers will experience a light and energetic atmosphere with a few quirks. Furniture that would typically be seen outside will be brought into this

For my cafe, I'd like to make a comfortable environment that may make them feel at home. Since most of the student population lives in either a dorm or an apartment, I wanted to have an outdoor inspired cafe that makes you feel like you are relaxing in your own backyard. Pallet benches, lawn like accessories, lots of

The name I chose for my cafe is Bean There. I wanted simplicity with a bit of a hand-drawn and loose style for the logo. I decided on the colors of green and brown because it introduces a sense of  an organic quality. 

The first picture is a few testings I did while trying to figure out my logo. The class liked the logo with the deer antlers the most. I decided to go into a more professional direction when designing my logo on illustrator. I wanted it to be more graphically simple and for my initials and name to stand

I enjoyed this exercise as I got to be creative with the materials. I need to work on my wood flooring a little more, so I'm going to ask Dana for some advice! Also, my tiles could be a little more straight, but over all I am happy with how this turned out. I enjoyed this exercise as

I had a lot of fun doing these floor plans as we were allowed to be more creative. I decided to title my demo house as "Luxury Loft" because its a cute, small oasis. I struggled with laying out the furniture in an efficient way. I do think my measurements and lines came out better than the "My

I struggled with the spacing of measurements on the My Swamp House floor plan. Practice makes perfect though as I saw a great improvement whenever I did the My Demo House floor plan. I realized after we had class the other day that I needed to add dimension to my closet as it is confusing that it seems

While experimenting with my markers, I found that I enjoy using them on trace paper and vellum the most since they blend much easier on these soft papers. Bristol gives the markers a harsher, more clean-cut look which can be nice if that's the appeal you're looking for. I can see how the blending tool could come useful

I definitely struggled with this assignment when it came to perspective and showing the lighting condition. Getting the right shade of purple for the wall was difficult for me since I had mainly bright hues in my set of colored pencils. I first laid down the warm gray 40% prismacolor marker and then blended purple on top. I

I benefited mostly from the first worksheet out of the two of these. It helped me to truly grasp the concept between the hue, shade, and tint of a color. For example: the tint of yellow isn't as much of a difference to its hue as the shade of yellow is. However, blue is the opposite, to where

From top to bottom shows my full process of drawing this perspective of the hallway in the architecture building. While practicing in my sketchbook, I was having trouble with establishing a correct perspective since all aspects of my drawing weren't going to the vanishing point. I tried to keep this in mind while I was doing my finalized

This exercise helped me to understand the process of drawing basic, contour shapes first and then to next add detail with tone and value. This makes a drawing more dimensional and realistic. I applied these techniques that I learned to my final drawing I did for the homework. 

I found this exercise extremely helpful because it helped me to focus on perspectives. The blurriness of the film made it hard to look at every little detail. This made me pay attention more to the contour of the building and the shapes it creates. I enjoyed this as it helped me with the struggle I have of

Here is an image of some practice I did of drawing a vase on my desk. Using a cube to generate the shape for a cylinder definitely made this process easier. Here is the practice drawing of my desk in my sketchbook. Once again, I used a cube when generating the shape for my desk. I used the

These exercises were very helpful because they initiated my thought process of how boxes should be drawn in perspective. I found exercise 3.2 difficult when trying to depict one box inside of another. Both of these exercises improved my skills. I enjoyed doing exercise 3.3 because it challenged me when it came to a cylindrical shape. I believe

Understanding different perspectives of an object helped me to learn a lot during this exercise. The desk and its objects were portrayed differently within every angle I looked at it. I had an extremely difficult time when drawing the legs because of the aspect of perspective. I also had a difficult time with shading, since there is a

Practicing circles in perspective ended up being a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. However, I noticed that it definitely helped while I was practicing drawing cylinders later in the week.  These shapes help to make the objects in my drawing seem more 3-dimensional and realistic.  I thoroughly enjoyed the Euclidean rendering exercise. It was

The first two images are practice for the final Name It drawings. I tried to focus more so on how the 3-D objects on sculpture casted shadows on to the rest of the sculpture. I enjoyed drawing from the perspective of the side of the model more than looking straight at it. It was easier to add and

Here 3 types of contour drawings were practiced; blind, modified, and cross-contour. The blind contour drawings are the top two. I struggled with this greatly, although I did notice that it got be to focus more so on the object. The second two drawings are modified contour drawings. This was my favorite type of contour drawing to do

While practicing in the atrium, we were told to focus on proportion. I found this extremely difficult as my mind sees the whole box, while my eyes do not. Letting go of what your brain is telling you and understanding what your eyes are telling you has proven to be extremely difficult for me.  In this drawing, the
