FARNSWORTH HOUSE
Modelmaking, Orthographic Drawings, Axonometric, and Perspectives are the four parts of this project. We were able to gain a thorough understanding of the architectural detail and spatial values of Ludwig Mies van de Rohe's Farnsworth House as a result of the project.
PROGRESS
Following the project brief, I immediately began work on the 1:100 model, which I anticipated would be time and labor intensive. For the roof and flooring, I used foam boards, square balsa sticks for the pillars and staircase, and clear PVC sheets for the glass walls.
After that, I concentrated on Farnsworth House's orthographic drawings. A floor plan, two elevations, and a section are included. All necessary measurements and grid lines were included to aid me in the subsequent drawings, such as the axonometric and perspectives.
Then, using a T square and a 30 degree set square to create a 30/60 degree axonometric drawing on butter paper, I started drafting out the axonometric. I transferred the drawing onto actual paper and outlined it with ink, taking into account the appropriate line weight, after it was completed and approved by the tutor during tutorials.
Last but not least, I worked on perspective drawings. We were required to create one- and two-point perspective drawings of Farnsworth House. I made drafts of each perspective drawing after watching the online lecture tutorial on how to construct them properly. I transferred them to actual paper after they were completed and approved, as well as adding human models and the surrounding environment for context.
