It also shows the connection between the hall basement and the cooling fountain.

Architectural drawing on tracing paper showing the site plan of a new graduation hall at the University of Strathclyde in scale 1:1000. The site plan has no street names, however, it is easy to identify the location of the new graduation hall as the site plan shows how the new hall is connected with Barony Hall. The North sign is present on this material. It also shows the design of the new landscape that goes behind the site boundary to make the new hall integrated within the main University campus.

Architectural drawing on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen representing the final design of the south elevation and the north elevation in scale 1:100. The architect used a technique to render this elevation, mainly walls with horizonal lines leaving the window glasses as plain transparent areas. He also used Zip-A-Tone for window shadings. The same technique has been used to make the trees transparent figures to show the architectural elements behind them. The design of both elevation is based on the idea of solid and transparent between ground floor and upper floor giving the sense of lifting the upper floor by the cylinder columns, while the central glass dome appears to be the focal point.
The long section (scale 1:100) shows the structural system and constructional elements supporting the different indoor spaces and the variety of shapes relating to the functions of those spaces. The architect used figures to show the scale of the school building in relationship to people.

A free hand architectural drawing on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen and coloured markers related to the analysis of the project site plan in scale of 1:500. It illustrates the main roads surrounding the site: North Methven Street (from the east), Atholl Street (from the north), Ring Road (from the west), and Old High Street (from the south), showing pedestrian flow and cars traffic. It also identifies:

• the noise from busy Ring Road,
• the prevailing wind from south-west,
• the directions of vista from Old High St. and Ring Rd,
• the main view access to the site.
  The site analysis shows the landscape included in the site (river bank), and the existing buildings (H.V. sub station, City mills car park for 35 cars, free public car park 295 cars). And finally, the North sign shows the sun movement in winter and summer times.

A free hand architectural sketch on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen and coloured markers related to the initial study of the school project, illustrating:

• the zoning concept showing the connection between series of events (learning spaces, home bases) linked with the commercial spaces and special events,
• corridor concept emphasis on spaces not on corridor,
• spaces for events located in different arrangements according to the central circulation route,
• street concept developed to create most open arrangement,
• perspective effects caused by different shapes of the corridor ceiling and how they could make the "mentally handicapped" children even more frightening,
• sectional possibilities relating to the tenements on the opposite side of the street,
• the idea of designing a building as a street to "give practice in coping with external environment, only inside".

Architectural drawing on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen representing the upper floor plan (final design) in scale 1:100. It shows how the architect translated his initial strategy into the final design. The upper floor plan includes the indoor spaces (some are in double volume like the viewing space), vertical circulation, and other services. It also shows the main structural elements: cylinder columns, and load bearing walls. The upper floor comes with the full details of the indoor spaces with their furniture and the outdoor spaces and their relationships with the exterior elevations. Here, the architect names these spaces according to the pupils ages: 3-8 years, 8-12 years, 12-15 years, and 15-16 years. This floor walls are designed as semi-circular, both the exterior and the interior walls.

Architectural drawing on a tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen representing the street elevation (final design) in scale 1:200, however, it doesn't indicate which street this elevation is facing. The architect used a technique to render this elevation, mainly walls with horizonal lines leaving the window glasses as plain transparent areas. He also made the trees as transparent figures to show the architectural elements behind them.

Architectural drawing on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen representing the entrance elevation (east-final design) in scale 1:100. The architect used a technique to render this elevation, mainly walls with horizonal lines leaving the window glasses as plain transparent areas. He also used Zip-A-Tone for window shadings. The same technique has been used to make the trees transparent figures to show the architectural elements behind them.
The elevation design is based on the idea of solid and transparent between ground floor and upper floor giving the sense of lifting the upper floor by the cylinder columns, while the central glass dome appeared to be the focal point.
The cross section (scale 1:100) shows the structural system and constructional elements supporting the different indoor spaces and the variety of shapes relating to the functions of those spaces. On the detail section (scale 1:20), there are details of the constructional elements from foundations, floors, columns (externally and externally), walls, and all the finishing materials.

Material related to the design of a school for the "mentally handicapped", including site analysis, initial studies, initial strategy, floor plans, sections and elevations.

Architectural drawing on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen representing the site plan and section (final design) in scale 1:500. It shows how the architect translated his initial strategy into the final design. The site plan shows the main building outline, the indoor landscape (playground), the new car park, the main entrance to the site, and other themes related to surrounding buildings. While the site section (the site plan has no indication of where the architect took this section) shows the height of the new school comparing it to the height of the surrounding buildings.

Architectural drawing on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen representing the ground floor plan (final design) in scale 1:100. It shows how the architect translated his initial strategy into the final design. The ground floor plan includes the main building entrance, street entrance, the indoor spaces, vertical circulation, and other services. It also shows the main structural elements: cylinder columns, and load bearing walls. The ground floor comes with the full details of the indoor spaces with their furniture and the outdoor spaces and their relationships with the exterior elevations. Here, the architect names these spaces as: children's shop, story telling, library, and tea shop. The architect tried to design the school as a clear box from the outside, however, the interior design seems like more free space with curved lines making the movement smooth for the pupils.

A free hand architectural drawing on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen and coloured markers illustrating the initial strategy for the design of the school, showing a site plan in scale 1:500. The strategy addresses the most problematic issues and their suggested solutions:

• according to noise issue: soft area to be allocated towards the site's inner area, "noisy areas positioned along streets",
• new public car park planted with shrubs and trees along street edge,
• caretaker's house acting as control and closing off vista from lane,
• new pedestrian route and new vehicle access (buses, cars, ambulances, and service vehicles).
