In this course you are going to learn a step-by-step process how to sketch like an architect. It begins with the very basics of making straight lines and progresses to gradually more complex compositions of sketched perspectives. Along the way I will share important tips and tricks, drills, and techniques to achieve sketches with architectural look, strong character, and story within.

DESIGNER = PROBLEM-SOLVER + COMMUNICATOR
Designer is someone who solves problems and then communicates solutions – that is my favourite definition of a designer. I like it because of 2 reasons – it’s super short and it’s very truthful. The project ‘Sketch Like an Architect’ was created because I believe sketching dramatically helps designers in both of these disciplines.
The mission of the ‘Sketch Like an Architect’ project is to share values and benefits of hand-sketching for architects, designers, and hobby sketchers and to offer high-quality resources for further learning and improvement in this area.
