Arts and history solidified in architectural compositions |
||||
|
This project has been exhibited in the Biblioteca Herziana for the Conference of Drawing and Digitalization of the World Heritage. Taking the 3D scan data and hand-drawn in a historical accuracy, this reconstruction project is a collaboration among 3D laser-scanned data, Rhino modeling, hand-drawing and watercolor rendering. Given an artistic touch and appreciation of the dynamic nature of architectural representation, a complex structure such as the Cortile del Belvedere shines along with both digital and traditional media. The selective process of hand drawing also provides a way of exploring architectural composition, especially those of a high complexity and a long history, as a self-expressive piece of art. |

Exploring art of composition through 3D and drawing |

| The Rhino model was based on resulting scan data, integrating drawings of Letarouilly’s book: The Vatican and Saint Peter’s Basilica of Rome, and textual sources collected during Fall 2017 DHARMA team work. The exported scan image is then superposed on a Rhino model after Letarouilly’s measurement to serve as a graphic base for hand rendering. The hand drawings of lines and watercolor on the next page show a drawing process of reproducing the architecture of the whole Cortile in six critical historical phases. | ||||
