This document provides instructions for a drawing project in an Introduction to Drawing course. Students must choose two objects no smaller than A5 size, sketch and measure them, and include the measurements in progress sheets signed by tutors. Using references and measurements, students must independently generate a set of architectural drawings for each object including a plan, two elevations, two sections, one detail drawing, and a cover drawing. Drawings must have appropriate scales, details, subtitles, annotations and lettering. Progress sheets and final drawings must be submitted according to the specified format and requirements. Plagiarism will result in failure of the course.

Introduction
“It taught me that there are three versions of things: the one I see in my mind, and the one
that carries onto the paper, and then what it ultimately becomes.”
Lauren DeStefano, Sever
Objectives
• Identify the fundamental principles, elements and techniques in drawing, design
process and drawing presentation skills.
• Demonstrate observation skills and be able to record, organize, interpret and
describe a variety of issues via visual communications effectively.
Learning Outcome
• Identify the type of drawing representation
Tasks
1. Individual student required to chosen 2 objects and objects chosen must not be smaller
than A5. Students are to sketch and conduct measurement of chosen objects. Objects
chosen must consists a minimum of 3 different geometries surfaces. This would be included
in the progress sheets submission that must be signed by respective tutors.
2.Then by using book references/ classroom tutorial, independently you are to explore the
applications of Drawing Conventions and using the measurement from the observation you
are to generate architectural drawings that clearly expressing the 3 dimensional objects.

2. Required Drawings:
1. ONE plan
2. TWO elevations
3. TWO sections
4. ONE detail drawing
5. ONE cover drawing
Each drawing must be legible and need to be completed with: Drawing details & information,
Subtitle and Annotations/Note-taking. Incomplete work will receive marks of C- or below.
Each drawing must have an appropriate SCALE. You are required to take/make notes
based on your understanding of architectural drawings’ convention requirements to visualize
the selected objects. The notes/annotations must be included as part of the drawings
requirement and written clearly and neatly in the drawings. At all-time proper architectural
lettering is mandatory.
Materials/Equipment
It is your responsibility to bring all necessary tools to facilitate your measurement, drawing
and note-taking. Suggested drawing tools: A3 Paper (120 gm drawing paper or better);
Butter paper; Art line pens (0.1, 0.3 & 0.5); Pencils (2B); Soft Eraser; Flexible Eraser;
Erasing Shield; Architectural Scale Ruler; Set-square, T- Square or Parallel Ruler.
Plagiarism will be taken as a serious case and will result in failure of the subject
Submission Requirement
Individual student required to submit the progress sheets that would consist a class activity
drawings as well as :
• Draft drawings of the chosen 2 objects (at least 2 pages/object– exploration
sketches)
• Measurements of the chosen 2 objects (1 page) These progress sheets must be
stapled and signed by your respective tutors
• Progress sheets would be in the form of A4 butter papers
Then by using book references/ classroom tutorial, independently you are to explore the
applications of Drawing Conventions and using the measurement from the observation you
are to generate architectural drawings that clearly expressing the 3 dimensional objects in
sets of A5 drawings, submitted in a set, according to a suggested packaging design

3. Required Drawings per object:
1. ONE plan
2. TWO elevations
3. TWO sections
4. ONE detail drawing
5. ONE cover drawing
