2D development and sketches

In this post, I will share the development of my 2D outcomes.

As seen in the images below, these are the 2D outcomes for my project. This consists of an elevation, sections and concept sketches. Lastly, for the floor plans, I made it digitally, which I will talk more about below.

Fig.1 Elevations

As seen in Fig.1, these are the elevation sketches of my project. I used an Ink pen on A3 white paper, which was scanned as seen above. It consists of front, back and left-side perspectives. As for the measurements, I have listed below according to the scale that I used as below:

Scale Used- 1:50

Front side elevation

A-17cm (8.5m)

B-35cm (17.5m)

C-40cm (20m)

D-17cm (8.5m)

E-10cm (5m)

F-12cm (6m)

G-10cm (5m)

Left-side elevation

A-39cm (19.5m)

B-11cm (5.5m)

C-9cm (4.5m)

D-29cm (14.5m)

E-5cm (2.5m)

F-20cm (10m)

The house's height, width, and length are 25cm/ 35cm/39cm (12.5m/17.5m/19.5m)

(measurements for the front and back elevations are the same)

Next, in Fig.2 are the section sketches of my project.

Fig.2 Section sketches

As seen in Fig.2, these are the section sketches of my project. According to the front and left-side sections, the house's entrance will be at the front-right side of the house. As you enter, I implemented an open-concept hallway that combines the ground and the first floor. These floors are connected by a staircase in the hallway leading to the 2nd and master bedrooms, with more space on the second floor for any furniture or decorations to be added. The space above can also be a reading area or an office area for the parents to work from home or the kids to do any school work from home.

Fig.3 Concept Sketches

As seen in Fig.3, these are the concept sketches of my project. These sketches are made from the perspective of a person walking down the street. Both the right and left sides are seen above. The garage is located on the right side of the house. The design is an open concept that provides fresh air inside the garage and allows natural light to save electricity. The garage also connects to the utility room which leads to the backyard of the house.

Fig.4 Ground floor plan

As seen in Fig.4, this is the floor plan for the ground floor of the house. As mentioned before, the garage connects the front yard to the inside of the house and leads to the backyard. The area of the building is around 210m². This does not include the area for the whole house, which is around 250m². I have added some furniture and appliances to the floor plan to have a better image of each room and its purpose. The area for the building (not including the backyard and front yard) is 135m². The backyard is 71.22m², and the front yard is 40m². This floor includes a third bedroom, a connected kitchen and dining room, a living room and a utility room.

Fig.5 First floor plan

Fig. 5 shows the first-floor plan for the house. As mentioned before, the hall is an open concept connecting the ground and first floors. This led to another hall that can be used in different ways, such as a reading area or a workspace where you can work from home. This first floor has two suite bedrooms: the master bedroom and the second bedroom.

The floor plans are made using a software called MagicPlan, and the sketches are made using ink pen on A3 white paper. I will be sharing the 3D process and outcome in my next post.
