ASSIGNMENT 01
AEDIFICIUM
( 20% INDIVIDUAL )
In this assignment, we will develop our observation skills and master the art of visual communication through detailed drawings. The focus is on effectively capturing diverse elements and features, facilitating powerful graphical information exchange.
For the assignment, students are required to choose five historical buildings, structures, or monuments from the specified era:
-
Ancient Architecture
-
Medieval Architecture
-
Renaissance Architecture
-
Baroque Architecture
-
Neoclassical Architecture
​
Students must then create a set of drawings accompanied by thorough analysis. Through drawing, students should proficiently and inventively visually convey the features and elements of the selected subjects.
Additionally, the assignment calls for adopting a critical analysis methodology, including documenting and producing diagrammatic interpretations, all with proper architectural lettering style.

REFLECTION
This assignment is arguably my favourite assignment in the whole FNBE, and that's because it allows me to play to my full strengths, which are drawing and watercolouring, both of which are also my interests.
The process of completing this assignment went very smoothly and the final result made me feel very accomplished.

communication skills
Throughout this assignment, I have developed the ability to capture and translate information into drawings accurately and clearly. It was essential to pay attention to every detail and ensure that the drawings presented in-depth observations. By focusing on accuracy and precision, I successfully communicated information effectively and creatively through visual communication.
