In My Perspective...

Posted by MAKMU ta On Monday, April 25, 2011 No comments

Hi, all! Hope your Easter weekend was wonderful! If you missed the picture on yesterday's Easter post, it's almost worth it to look now(:

Today I'm sharing my latest Perspective Drawing class project with y'all {Oh yeah, I started saying y'all over on Megan's blog(: }  Our assignment is to draw our dream room in perspective.  Sound easy?  It's not! But it sure is fun.  And hey, I'd rather spend 3 hours drawing than studying for a chemistry exam.  Fall quarter I took a floor plan drafting class and loved it. We learned how to draft elevations and plans, and my favorite elevation was of my kitchen, so for this perspective project I knew I wanted to do a kitchen.  Here are my two inspiration images.  You may be confused since one isn't a kitchen, but I'll explain below!



Any ideas of how I'm combining these two lovely photos??

Here's the scoop:
I loved the idea of the loft above a room, so above the kitchen, I'm adding a loft-catwalk-looking-thing to add some interest and depth.  Here's my floor plan and elevation so far:


An elevation is just a flat drawing of one wall of the room.  My elevation is the North wall in the above floor plan.  



The store fireplace doubles as a pizza oven. It was my favorite feature of the inspiration room, so I knew it was staying. Note to self: pizza kitchen is on my wish list for my future home (:

Hope you enjoyed a tiny look into my school work! Suggestions are always welcome.  Next up is actually drawing it in perspective.

Hope you have a wonderful Monday! I'm off to kick a Textile midterm {the day after Easter, really?!} in the booty!  

Love and Drawing,
