Landscape Drawing - Angles in Architecture



















In the drawing above there are many different angles. The building was very good subject because the front was at a slanted angle but the back had 90-degree angles. This drawing also included curves. I have included shading because this shows the shadows created by different sections of the building which did not have any natural light. I have chosen this perspective because there are many different features that do not repeat. This makes every line different. The smaller features such as the windows emphasise the different angles. The sides of the building are very important because they show in more clear detail their angles. 

Not all the angles of the building line up with each other but they do not overlap which makes the building very interesting to draw. From this viewpoint I was able to see this in more than one place; at the top of the building and at the bottom right hand side. I was able to show angles which have a very strong line and tried to learn the basic of modern architecture of the exterior. What also made this building stand out is that it was on a hill, so this meant that it created new angles and challenges.


Overall I enjoyed drawing this building because it was interesting to see the many different angles all come together from the viewpoint I had chosen. As this building was not just made up of one angle this was perfect for showing the many different angles in architecture.
