Presentation of Materials
A course by Pavel Fomenko, Architect and concept developer
About the video: Presentation of Materials
Overview
“Now, you will get introduced to and learn about basic tools of sketching. The choice of the sketchbook is an essential part of the drawing experience - it will define your format, set the boundaries for the size and scope of the drawing process. The paper quality and its weight will also determine the ease and type of sketching technique. We will also briefly examine the types of fineliners and mechanical pencils in regard to their practical use.”
In this video lesson Pavel Fomenko addresses the topic: Presentation of Materials, which is part of the Domestika online course: Architectural Drawing: From Imagination to Conceptualization. Learn to amplify your ideas with architectural geometry, three-dimensional thinking, and drawing techniques.
