Scope and content

Architectural drawing on tracing paper related to Housing design/project 2 represents block 2 'corner pub' elevation facing Raeberry St., internal court elevation, and cross section in scale 1:200. The cross section shows the differences in the site's levels and how the ground topography affects the design of the main entrances to the courtyard. This section shows the ratio of the building height to the opened space span. The architect used colour on part of the elevation to give an idea of the final look of the building facades.
