OVERALL REFLECTION
THROUGHOUT THIS MODULE, I HAVE LEARNED HOW TO SHOW PRECISE AND ACCURATE MEASUREMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS OF DESIGN IDEAS THROUGH VARIOUS TYPES OF CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS. BESIDES, I HAVE ALSO LEARNED THE PROPER AND APPROPRIATE WAY OF ASSEMBLING/COMPOSING ARCHITECTURAL BOARDS THROUGH PROJECTS AND ASSIGNMENTS.
​
BEING ABLE TO VENTURE INTO NEW CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS SUCH AS AXONOMETRIC AND PERSPECTIVE DRAWINGS/PROJECTIONS HAS BROADENED MY OPTIONS AND WAYS TO EXPRESS A SPACE WHEN PRESENTING TO OTHERS.
APPLICATION IN REAL LIFE
APPLYING THE KNOWLEDGE OF CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS AND COMPOSITION OF THE ARCHITECTURAL BOARD WILL BENEFIT ME IN THE FUTURE WHEN IT COMES TO CONVEYING DESIGN IDEAS AS WELL AS THE TECHNICALITY OF THE BUILDINGS TO MY CLIENTS.
