Architectural Drawing: From Imagination to Conceptualization

“Welcome to the "Final Project" section and thank you so much for taking this course with me. It has been an amazing experience for me to share with you some of my techniques and ideas. I am now going to show you how to share each step of your final project with the whole community.

Once your sketch is done, you have to focus on your color palette, which has to blend with the idea and message you want to convey with your project.

Sharing and communicating our work with others always helps us to progress faster. I’ll be sure to let you know my thoughts on the forum when I can, though please remember that I’m often busy with all my ongoing projects. Thank you so much for taking this course with! Keep experimenting!”
