Two Point Perspective - Japanese Zen Building 

Shown here is another design I have developed myself using the two point perspective drawing technique. I took inspiration for this design from traditional Japanese houses – I chose to include sliding doors as seen in many traditional Japanese buildings and placed my concept against a natural backdrop. I have also given this structure a large glass panel around the entire perimeter of the roof. This would allow large amounts of natural light into the building if ever constructed in reality.




Two Point Perspective - 3 Point House

Shown here is a design I developed myself using the two point perspective drawing technique. For this design, I took inspiration from the crazy paving style used in pavements and driveways. I essentially developed the rest of the structure around this crazy paving style. I chose to add a glass barrier around the roof, turning into a roof terrace. I believe this adds a modern touch to the otherwise quite traditional house.

Throughout my AS project, I was able to use Computer Aided Design to develop my scale model. The main development can be seen in the picture on the top left of this collection. I believe these photos show my proficiency in CAD, particularly using programs such as Google Sketchup and Adobe Illustrator. Using programs such as these allowed me to mathematically plan my model, ensuring it was made to a high level of accuracy.
