Sketches of an Architect, by Rouen Cathedral on Jul 23, 2017 12:51:46 GMT 1, Not urban art but I though I'd share some sketches completed throughout the design process.
I've never been the greatest sketcher but am a huge proponent of putting pen to paper to get design ideas flowing. To often architects/students get stuck with all the computer based tools that the designs become rigid and 'stuck'. Using the hand helps keep the design flexible even though almost everything is computer based these days I always try to find time to sketch even if it's quick and rough.
I've always seen architect sketches as little works of art especially from those much more skilled then me!
Here's a couple and I'll probably keep adding to the thread.

Sketches of an Architect, by reyn on Jul 28, 2017 17:49:14 GMT 1, Personally I love original architect sketches. I started out sketching years ago before moving to the drawing board. Now it's all AutoCAD which seems to depersonalise the whole process.

Sketches of an Architect, by The True Cubs Fan on Jul 28, 2017 21:31:33 GMT 1, Actually love architectural sketches, saw someone making one of a beautiful building while traveling in Rio and asked to buy it. It was a whole mix up because I don't speak Portuguese and they didn't speak English. But would love to see more of people's sketches!

Nice work, but you need to add two steps up to your front door as it looks like 300mm plus high 😉

Sketches of an Architect, by searchandrescue on Jul 31, 2017 11:51:38 GMT 1, Studied architecture as a young person for a few years, it will always be my life's passion. The power of a pencil and paper can never be underestimated. Loving the Papermate fineliner's! those along with Pilot and Rotring were the business! Occasionally dig out some of my sketch books / drawings some of my best work without a doubt.
