About the video: Architectural Design and Infrastructural Elements
Overview
“It's time to go more in-depth about the main project by imagining its architectural content's scope and studying its various elements. You'll look at its pivotal junctures (of the established road stretch) and define its key building concepts. You'll then study the designs and inspirations. I'll show you how to delve into and explore the designs of things like transit terminals, ancillary structures, bridges, tunnels, and vista points. I'll teach you how to go beyond the typical architectural conceptualization. And you'll see how I draw inspiration from the examples of car design, aviation, infrastructure, structural engineering, and nature in my architectural thinking. There is a breadth of fascinating similarities between these fields, and I will guide you through my approach to integrating them into your project´s designs. ”
In this video lesson Pavel Fomenko addresses the topic: Architectural Design and Infrastructural Elements, which is part of the Domestika online course: Architectural Freehand Concept Sketching. Enhance your architectural design skills through freehand sketching. Learn how to quickly conceptualize and visualize your ideas through simple line drawings..

“So here for example we can as well use the shading techniques by using one of our markers. Apply shadow onto the columns and the pillars. I would certainly put a little bit more shade on the insides of this cupolus. So here you'll be able to distinct their shapes. And then you can see sort of the openings and the overriding shape and form of our structure. Let's add some color again just to increase the readability of this design. Let's think that the underbelly has timber cladding. Again, it doesn't really matter what cladding it is. I mean if you want to add another color, do it. Again, t...”
