Views along a line

This exercise was to highlight the importance of considering the views and the impact of each design plane when designing landscapes and creating spaces. By drawing a series of eye level sketches at various points and asking 'what does it feel like in that space?' as well as 'what does it look like?' can help make design decisions.


A few of these points felt quite oppressive and dark. After having a look at the other students' work, I could see that many of us had made similar mistakes. I found this very useful and worried less about the quality of my sketches. I would look for alternative features at these points if I were to do the exercise again.
