North Place: Sketchbook Site Layout Idea Sketches

Image
 I decided to get some early, rough sketches down in my sketchbook with regards to ideas for the North Place site in Cheltenham. These were done using both ballpoint pen and colouring pencils. These sketches are by no means developed or deeply thought out ideas, these were simply me roughly sketching the site and thinking about what could work with the placement, and rough sizes of compononents. I used the brief's design criteria to try and ensure all components were integrated, even at this early stage of the process.

Another point in this reader which many people don't consider is reducing their paper usage and recycling it where possible. We still, even in the digital age,...

Sketching in the French Alps

Image
 Below is an example of a 0.5mm ballpoint pen sketch which I did while on a ski holiday in Flaine, France over the Christmas break. I am happy with this sketch as I believe it accurately represents the view from outside of the hotel where we were staying. I think that this is well proportioned and perspectived on the whole.
