Detailing and Working Drawings

WHAT IS DETAILING & WORKING DRAWINGS?
It is a technical drawing of a building or furniture used by interior architects and others for a number of purposes to develop a design idea into a coherent proposal to communicate ideas and concept, to enable a building contractor to construct it, as a record of the completed work.

WEEK 1: Design Front Cover for my sketch book

Interpersonal Skill 
The design of this book cover is using Zentangle Method combine with the puzzle format. It is a relaxing and fun way to create beautiful images by drawing structured and detail patterns. It help me to increase focus and creativity with an increased sense of personal well being. Besides, I believe Zentangle Method is an elegant metaphor for deliberate artistry in life. You should try it!

WEEK 2: In class section
Student required to work in group and choose one loose furniture within the classroom. Our group selected a white board and we required to observe, measure and draw in sketch book. Each group must have a representative to present the drawing including plan, elevation and section.



















Self Reflection: 
Interpersonal Skill
Form this half hour, me and my group member work together by separated each task to each person. My task is draw the front and back view of the white board. However, it is amazing how so many people spend 5 minute and selecting a piece of furniture. Basically the step is preparing tools for measure, starting measure every side, record and draw it on a piece of B5 paper.

WEEK 3
Today Lecture is about furniture play an essential role in use of operation of building.
It comes with loose furniture and built in furniture. Loose furniture is movable furniture and Built-in furniture are essentially places.
The task is student required to work in group and draw the detail drawing of our chosen build-in-furniture. The first step is to measuring the cabinet, which was measured by my group member. And step two is to draw detail drawing (in scale) including the specification and drawing title.

Thinking and Problem Solving Skill
Through out this task, I learnt about the important of a teamwork that help this drawing successfully done. Thanks a lot to my group member and my lecturers by teaching us the element to draw a detail drawing especially in the section view. We make mistake, but we learnt from it.

WEEK 4: BORJE CHAIR ( Loose Furniture)


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WEEK 5 : WARDROBE DETAILING


From this weekly assignment, we're required to draw a detail analysis and interpretation observation on a wardrobe section and drawer. It require effective observation on careful attention to both, which is the size and the section detail of the object.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROJECT 1: OBSERVATION 'JOURNAL' 20%
This assignment students to do an observation for an interior spaces, preferably with an interesting design features and details. The understanding of the level of details, the variety of materials and perhaps construction and fixtures and illustrate it in the form of sketches visualization.
Requirements:
-3D Sketches with specifications.
-Sketches must be hand drawn using felt-tip.

This assignment help me in the ability of identify edges, recognize space, calculate proportions(size and measurement) and angles(elevation and perspective), judge light from shadow while doing the hatching drawing. Every sketches in this booklet required a steady hand technique and lots of patient to draw what I see. (learn how to observe the way an artist does). Besides, I learnt to generate progress and communication drawing concepts and solution while translating idea based on observation and site measurement.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROJECT 3: 
WORKING DRAWING + SYSTEM INTEGRATION 50%
This assignment requires students’ to produce a working drawings. The objective is to enable students to produce documents with an integration of the building services components by working together in the design process and identify solutions to design needs with interior design proposal of appropriate building scale.
Requirements:
Prepare a selected working drawing requirement for Proposal Interior Design Work (selected area) from our design studio.

Discipline Specific Knowledge
Through out this project, it help me to improve my ability of thinking and working analysis and conceptually in translating design drawing into working drawing. By communicating ideas, concept and details, and require drafting skills in modern and follow the method of UBBL format. On the other hand, I learnt to generate progress and communicate drawing concepts and solution through drawing and digital technologies (Auto-Cad).
