Final Models

I...like  models because they are so realistic.  You can light them and photograph them and take them to bed and pretend that they are built.

CSH Practice Elevation Drawings

Set your heights more than what you see around you, see beyond.
~Anthony Anderson

For the next phase of the design process, the girls create elevation drawings.  An elevation is a common method of depicting the exterior of a building.  Building façades are shown as elevations in architectural drawings and technical drawings.  CSH students practice elevation drawing of their bus stop design to plan for the next step: model making.


Mrs. Grueterich provides an example of an elevation drawing.
Students create their drawings, based on their bus stop design plans.
