Week 5 - Site Visit

For week 5 class we went to Sri Hartamas for site visit. We went by bus and the whole journey took about 1 hour to reach the destination. The site visit is not only for detailing and working drawings but also for IDP class, because in the end in IDP class we are going to design a cafe or restaurant in Sri Hartamas. We worked in a group and each group were given task to do and everyone has to complete to task before 6pm. From what I observed on that day, from 3-6pm there are not much people in the area. From the area we visited, the shop are more on retail than restaurant. What I realized,  most of the people they are more preferably gather or having meal in the mamak. *the weather is extremely hot!*

Wardrobe detailing drawing

For this week task we are going to draw the details of a wardrobe. I picked my own wardrobe and for this task I find it quite easy. As I am able to produce one page of drawings with an actual photo of my wardrobe. However, I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly but I fully understand how is the wardrobe been built and how it's been installed. It's a built-in cabinet and floor to ceiling height.

Week 4

This week class we were having lecture on measured drawing. It's actually quite to catch up in this subject as it is very tough. Every single details of the furniture we have to know. However with the help of lecturers I'll try my best to understand as much as I can. So after the lecture conducted, our lecturer test us on detail drawing of a drawer stopper in section view.

There are two drawings simply because for the first one, the top part of the cabinet is not align with the drawer. Hence, I went back and redrew and I got it right at the second time.


Loose furniture

As we were given a week to finish the loose furniture detail drawing and upload it to times and blog before the class conducted. In fact, this is a group task and the person who is going to present the drawing will be drawing and posting. However, our group divided the task. One person drawing, another person think of the specifications, one person present and the other one upload to times and blog. Although this task is supposed to draw by the person who is going to present, our group members decided to draw together in our sketch book as our own reference and journal.

This is the drawing our group produced.

Class activity 2- Built in furniture

For today class exercise we were doing built-in furniture. It's was so tough that I ever though. As every single details we are not allowed to miss out and we have to do a lot of indications. We work in a group and spent almost 2 hrs in just drawing plan, elevation, section and blow up drawings. We divided our work and each of the group members have their own job. In that way, we work faster. However we did not manage to submit so our lecturer extended the time until tonight. In fact, we are given 1.5 hours to finish and upload it to blog. Actually we were given two tasks where the other one is assembly drawing. We did not manage to do in the class so we do it at home and upload it to blog before Wednesday. So, for this built in furniture drawings will be presented next week and I am going to present on behalf of my group members.


 This is the built in furniture that we chose. It's a bar counter in one of my group member's house.

Task 1- Observation

As I mention about the furniture sketching in the previous page, each one of us have to produce sketches with detail drawings specifications. So, there is plan, elevation, section and blow up in the drawings. We are allowed to use only artline pens to sketch; no ruler, no pencil. So here's mine! I'm trying my best to do well but I don't know if I'm doing it correctly. :( Hopefully it's correct. 

Loose furniture that we are going to draw.







Class activity 1- Loose furniture

How is everyone doing today? Well, for me I have a busy and happy day. Our class is having IDP  2 first presentation . Thank god the presentation went super well and I got very good feedback from my lecturers. Anyway, back to detailing and working drawings we are assigned into a group of 4 and sketch a selected furniture. We were given 15 minutes to do the sketching then we have to presentation after that.  So our group selected a desk. Ohh btw, we were tested after lecture is given.

 Sketches to be presented 

While the group members were presenting their sketches we were actually helping each other to look out what is the mistake made so that we won't make the same mistake on the next sketches. Trying to be as perfect as possible. :)
