On the third session we were briefed and told the location of our urban intervention! Northern Quarter!

Through the recommended trace overlay sketching methods we developed design ideas and on the final day we exhibited them :)

Diagramming and inspiration! By diagraming and analysing the site plans I noticed the geometry and pattern of enclosure of the site . Through deconstructing, extruding and folding the plan I was able to create different shape canopies reflecting these two elements of the site

In the 4th session we visited and sketched all 3 of the sites, I chose the first site, as I found the wall art and graffiti interesting and very reflective of the feel of Northern Quarter in general

The afternoon was spent developing our existing sketching skills at an urban sketching session Central Library. Exploring the building and its context

The first session introduced us the the world of urban sketching, with an inspirational talk by Simone Ridyard. Her energetic and experimental style was the motivation we needed for our live sketching session!
