REFLECTION

From this project, I learned the basics of creating architectural drawings from orthographic to axonometric to perspectives. I was able to understand how spaces are translated onto paper. With reference of an actual building, I have experienced a glimpse of the architect's responsibilities. All these skills and techniques will be extremely valuable to my future career in the construction industry.
