This document provides an index and descriptions for projects completed as part of a 3D graphics and design course. It includes summaries of techniques for one point and two point perspective drawings, oblique and isometric drawings with textures and shadows, SketchUp skills for arrays and scenes, and projects for a tiny house, wall sconces, 3D printing, and landscape design. The landscape design project specifies the client's wishes, site restrictions, and proposed hardscape and landscape materials.

4. One Point Perspective
• To choose an interior view of some building on campus
• I chose Davies Hall, 3rd floor
• Start using a light touch and light 2H or 4H pencil
• Sketch the overall square or rectangle first
• Determine where your eye level is

7. Oblique/Isometric/Shadow
In class
• Create one sheet with several shape studies (at least 3
oblique and 3 isometric)
• Choose a location for a light source and shade your
shapes
• Add a boarder 1/2" from edge
• Add title information: 1/4" - OBLIQUE-ISOMETRIC-
SHADOW
• (ARCHI HAND LETTERING) 1/4" - YOUR NAME
• 1/8" – DATE
On Campus
• Create once sheet with at least eight texture details
• Some natural, some man made
• Add a boarder 1/2" from edge
• Add title information: 1/4" - TEXTURES
• (ARCHI HAND LETTERING) 1/4" - YOUR
NAME
• 1/8" - DATE

10. Two Point Perspective
• Start using a light touch and light 2H or 4H pencil
• Your choice to use a ruler or not, but if not, it better be good
• Sketch the horizon
• Locate two vanishing points far out on your paper
• Sketch the overall shape of the building
• Start filling in details always paying attention to the vanishing points
• Once you have the line work established
• Start darkening important focal lines to B or 2B
• The mid-level lines (doors, windows, columns) to H, HB;
• The grid lines for finish materials (ceiling or floor tiles) can remain light.

29. 27
• Choose a partner
• Choose an Architect from the list:
• Research style aesthetics and buildings of that Architect.
• You will be writing a short synopsis of the architect and what it was that inspired your idea for your wall
sconce design.
• Save information from your research (bldg. image).
• Together, brainstorm what your sconce might look like, what elements to include and each of you sketch
a few ideas for the sconce.
• Decide on one or combine elements to create a whole new one and create one good drawing (shaded) to
work from.
• Use this drawing to create patterns for cutting out the material to assemble into a model.
• Use the materials of your choice from the material list or if you have other ideas, let me know, to create
the model of your wall sconce.

31. Wavy Building
• Wavy Building: This wavy building in New York City is
not a trick of the special effects artists. It is designed by
the world famous architect, Frank Gehry. The main
element that inspired the design is waves. This building
has movement much like that of the ocean. This is a 1:1
representation a sconce, and the materials the sconces
will be made from is frosted glass and sheet metal. The
way the metal would reflect the light would hopefully
imitate the way the sun reflects off the ocean. The light
bulb can be easily accessed by removing the fixture from
the wall.
