Doghouse 1 : Reflections• Getting to know SketchUp is hard, there was a lot of tools that needs to

remember, not only that but getting down the ideas of using the software to make something was even harder. Doghouse was the first assignment we did in class, the house took us approximately the whole 3 hour class period.

• The main purpose of this assignment is for us to be more comfortable using the tools in SketchUp, and learning how to use them. In class, Jerry(my teacher) talked about some of the interesting concepts and principles that we can apply in to our model.

• Tools used : select, rectangle, measuring box, push or pull, arc, move, copy, scale, tape measure, protractor, orbit, pan, and zoom

• Inference tools are important to control placement of objects and relate them to others.

• The 3D Warehouse is where I got the dog, and resized a little so it fit the house.• The image was save as an .png file and exported to my computer. Knowing

what I need helped me get the right size and picture that I need.• Trouble thing I had was getting the stairs all the way around. Knowing that one

of my line was not straight, I later add on the the missing part of my stairs to finish the job.

Relate modes of representation; select and apply best system to explore and communicate design intentions

Used perspective and orthographic views to communicate the idea of doghouse 1

2.b. Produce a set of architectural drawings to document a case study

NA

2.c. Produce a portfolio of work that chronicles student learning throughout the semester

YesSLO 3: Accurately relate each aspect of the drawn visual language system to three-dimensional reality and human perception

Using different camera views to look at the doghouse and by adding a person to it makes it more realistic. Resizing the dog to fit the house makes it more understandable that this is a doghouse.

SLO 4: Visually and verbally explain the process of idea development using graphic representation

The process of developing the doghouse included a series of following direction and understanding the concept of using SketchUp. Understanding the basic step of using the tools and getting it to the right side help me to develop thismodel.

The doghouse here is and organizes with a gable roof, Dutch entry door, and a square window on the left and the right side of the house. The gap between the house and the stairs are a resting area, and the stair are made out of tiles, and it goes around the house.

Doric Temple : Reflections

• The Doric Temple took a long time to create. It was not only time consuming but also took a lot of thinking. Making this model took a lot energy, because the software may listen to you, an sometimes it has a mind of its own.

• This model has a lot of ancient architecture idea in it as well, we took the concept from a 5th Century B.C Doric Temple that help us built ours.

• The temple is made with 48 stone columns, that is 12ft apart holding the top beams will eventually hold the roof.

• I face a lot of challenge making this model, the getting the right measurement into the right sides, putting the circle right in the middle, making sure that all columns can hold the stone up.

• The purpose of this assignment is for us to be comfortable using SketchUp, and be able to make more challenging things, also learning how to use more tools.

• Tools used : select, rectangle, measuring box, push or pull, arc, move, copy, scale, tape measure, protractor, orbit, pan, follow me, and zoom

SLO 4: Visually and verbally explain the process of idea development using graphic representation

The process of developing the Doric Temple involve with a lot of following directions, and making sure that the measurement is right. Getting to use new tools, and apply it to this modeling, and getting use to working these new tools.

The Doric Temple is made out od 12 columns that is set side by side of each other. It has the Dais as stairs. The top also have different side beams that sets the base for the roof that is going to be put on..
