Autocad

This is my first post for my PPD for FD Interior Architecture. I will use this blog to record my personal development on the course.

On Tuesday 11th January we had an Autocad session with Dan Civico. This session was just a basic introduction to using Autocad. We were told to draw a square using co-ordinates for the line length and for the angles. We drew a roof on by typing the angles in, autocad works counter clockwise for the angles so its a bit weird to get used to but after a while i am sure it will be fine. I feel that with some lessons i will be able to use Autocad with ease....hopefully!

Our new module that we are doing now, for the next 5 weeks, is AD108 for Urban Living, the redevelopment of Park Hill flats in Sheffield. I have had to create a client ( Crystal Rose Hewitt, a 27 year old fashion designer) and design the interior of one of Park Hills apartments to suit my client.

I am really enjoying this module as it is giving me a chance to get my creative side out and to learn new things.

Well thats all for now
