Intro to Design Drawing: BUS STOP

The assignment here was to measure a bus stop very carefully and draw it schematically. The idea was to get some practice drawing plans, sections, and elevations. I stole a tape measure from the lab (most of my design drawings have been enabled by thieving) and did this rendering of a stop for the Marguerite. It turned out kind of boring but it is technically correct.


PLAN


ELEVATION

Not content with this, but unable to cruise for new and exciting bus stops after selling Galactica, I decided to design a bus stop myself. When it came time to present these drawings to the class, I thought it would seem a bit too eager to admit I conjured this up on my own. I lied and said I found it in Mountainview.


PLAN Yes, it's important to use a template whenever drawing a curve rather than attempting it freehand. Lesson learned.


SECTION




ELEVATIONS - The bus stop in "Mountainview."


The next day I looked at my drawings and decided I should add a perspective sketch to show off the idea I was getting at. I wish I hadn't waited a day, since I really lost a sense of it and the perspective here is technically pretty poor. Also, the dark lines on either side shouldn't be there. According to all the other drawings, the clear glass just wraps around.
