Hi, so for the second half of this session, we are going to focus on a couple of pieces of

furniture. Now we've created the room setting, the archway and the window and as I said
before, we are now using the skills we've learned throughout the course to start applying
them to more realistic settings. As I've said, these are all transferable skills, the the aim is
that you can go and apply these to your own designs and drawings. So we're going to place
a table and a simple chair in this corner of the room here. So first we want to think about
where we're going to sit the table on the floor and create that square or rectangular plan so
it's going to come off of this wall here, so again, using our left hand vanishing point here we
can imagine a line coming in just along, just along there. So again, I'm doing this a little bit
darker so that you can see that, you keep your construction lines quite light. So the table
will sit somewhere into a corner around about here, so we take that line to the right hand
vanishing point which is up here. So that you can see gives us this rectangular area in the
corner. So around that, I can think, well let's have the table slightly away from the wall, so
we create a line over here, like so and let's have a away from this away from this wall as
well, let's do that, like so. OK, so I’ve created this rectangular shape on the floor which is
really where our table is going to sit. So we now want to project that up and then we can
construct legs and the table top. So starting from this point here closest to the wall, we do
another one of our lines which is at 90 degrees to the horizon line and parallel to these
other vertical lines. So we now want to project that up and we can start to plan where the
top of the table is going to be. So we use this back corner here, again this is one of our lines
which runs at 90 degrees to the horizon line and is one of those parallel lines across the
page, something that, you know by now, were quite familiar with. So I think the top of the
table in relation to meeting that wall and thinking about the height of a person coming
through this entrance and someone sitting in a chair and the window, I think that's about
right there. Again we're constructing this drawing bye eye. So yes, so that can be where we
construct on the table and we project a line up from each of these points that we’ve
constructed here, like so, and also this back corner here. Now we've decided the height that
our table is going to be from this point here, so we project that through that vanishing point
across to here. That's given us that first rectangular face there. Now actually what we're
doing here is very similar to what we did in the very early sessions of the course. We’re
starting to create a rectangular block. If you look, we project that point back to the
vanishing point there and there's another face. This point here across, that will go across to
there. Then we have this final line at the back here, and you can see, so this is given us a
framework of a block. As I say, it's just like the, just like the early sessions we did on the
course. So what we're going to do now is the table top, so there's our face that is the top of
the table, it needs a thickness, if I decide a thickness about here and I can project my line in
across there and then using that same point to the right hand vanishing point, I'll project a
line in across there, and there I've started to construct the top of the table. Now I can
remove some of these lines, so it’s visually easier to read. So we have the top of the table,
so let's have a look at legs. Now we've got these lines which are the start of the legs, so let's
start with this leg that's closest to us, we've got this line. So we've got these lines which are
the start of the legs. Now let's start with this frontline here. I put in a line here, and a line
here, that's going be that the initial construction of that leg, we need a bit of rubbing out
and we will add in our thick and thin lines. This line here, it’s easiest to look at this point
here. Now we look over at this leg, this edge here was projected to that right hand vanishing
point, so from this point here we have a similar technique, we have a small projected line to
that right hand vanishing point and then we can put in that vertical line, and another vertical
line, and that's going to be that leg. Now we are moving on quite a bit in this construction in
the course so you may need to pause rewind you might even need to revisit some of the
earlier sessions we did. So looking at this leg here we have this line in place, let's choose a
thickness of that leg at the bottom here, and put another line and there and whereas if we
look at this front leg here we have this line and it goes to the left hand vanishing point, with
the line here, it's the same technique here, with a small line going that way, choose a
thickness, and there’s that leg. Now we can see the back leg here, we've got this corner of
our frame so the easiest way to construct this is to look on the ground plane and put a small
square in which would be the foot, the foot of that leg and then upwards from that, we can
project our lines, three lines, it will create that back leg. So let's just remove a few of the
lines that are, yeah construction lines, that going confuse reading the image. I'll probably
neaten this up towards the end of the drawing but for now if I just fill in those lines that we
need, like so, you can still see the edge of that room. We can remove that bit of
construction line there, bring that corner back in place. Now as I said we will add in our thick
and thin lines later on, but you can see now, that we've made a really good start at creating
this table sitting in the room. So let's now move to the next stage of this drawing which is to
look at the chair. So it's a similar approach that we did with the table, first we're going to
think about where the chair is going to be sat on the ground. Now it wants to be as if it
would slide into the table this way, so somewhere between these two legs, we can use our
vanishing point here to start an initial line, like so. Now let's decide the width of this chair. I
think we have it around about, let's say, we work around about that width there. OK, so
that's the first line. Using this vanishing point we project a line out in this direction, we have
another one that will go back to that vanishing point, like so, and then we project a line in
this direction, like that. Like we did with the table, that is our kind of foot pattern, foot
template, for where this chair is going to stand, and we really initially repeat a similar
process. So we're going to project lines up from each of these corners, like this. Now let's
think about how tall, how high, we want this chair to be, thinking about, you know, it
moving into this table, but with someones legs being able to fit under it. I'd say it would
work about this height here. As we did with the table, we project a line from the left hand
vanishing point, out through there, this one back to that vanishing point, this one back to
that vanishing point out as well. We’ve got that final line across there. So that's the initial
rectangular block that's gives us the start of the chair. So it’s exactly the same to start with
as we did with the table, we decided thickness of the seat of the chair which can be a line in
here, one in here. I think we can remove now, some of this, this leg of the table, again I've
drawn quite dark, for you to be able to see the lines on the video, on the camera, but I
would suggest you still draw these lines for now, as light as you can. So that's the top of our
chair, like so, and the legs are the same process as we did for the table. So we've got those
three legs, now we can't see this back leg from this back corner and we can just now remove
this construction rectangle that we had at the start, like so. So in this effect it's as if it's like a
stool, really, as if it’s going to slide on the table, but we are going to add a back to this chair.

So, as I say, we are going to add a back to this chair. So like with many other things we’re
drawing we're going to start from rectangular block again, so let's think how high we would
like this back of the chair to be. Well I can drop a line in down through there, and remember
we're going to put a half circle, it’s a rounded top to the back of this chair. We have a line
down here, and it could be, you know, where's the top of this arc going to go, it could come
in about here. So let's bring that point off to the right hand vanishing point which would
come across there. So, there's our start of our constructional rectangle. Again, let’s remove
some of these lines behind, so as not to confuse things. I mean you can see now, you know,
that this back of this chair is taking shape, although we’re going to have a rounded top. So
again, if you need to revisit how we create these shapes, have a look at an earlier session, I
also did the same process here, if you remember we start with creating what is effectively a
square shape with our perspective here. So that's going to be about there. We do our
diagonals, we drop a line through there, now that's going to us the top point. I put a line
through that centre there, which is going to give us these other two points. Now you might
think, well, you know, I could quite easily draw in a curve in there. I mean you may well be
able to, many people you know do reach that stage where for something this small they will
just sketch that curve in. At this stage in the course I just want us to still gain confidence and
do this using this constructional technique. So if you remember, we have a diagonal in there
and there. We put these lines here, creating this this grid, and we have a point here and a
point over here and that, joining those up, it gives us the confidence too to get that line in
around there. So I can remove that line now here and take away some of these construction
lines. So we've got these 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 points of this half circle, we’re also going to have
thickness to this back of the chair. Let's use this leg thickness to mirror that, so we take a
line up here like so, now if you remember, when we do these these half circle and we
extend them into either into a cylinder or when we did a hole, we project the points to this
vanishing point. So we make a small projection off of this one, off of this one here, this one
here, although we won't see this part here, I still find it quite useful to put the whole arc in
sometimes though, especially if you're starting out, one there and a small line here. So these
are going to be our points round this, now we can join those up, to create a nice thickness to
that curve. So we can really say that starting to take shape nicely now with this table and
this chair, sitting in this room and we're using all the kind of techniques that we've built up
over the course. So to finish off with now I'm going to add in the thick and thin lines to this
table and chair and that will give us a much more three-dimensional feel to this drawing so,
we have a think line around here, under here, now this is an interesting bit here because
that edges still tucked under their, so remember that thick line my goes right up to that
point there, down here, and as you know, it's all the way around the edge for these shapes.
Round this edge of this chair, you see how that will help that really stand off the page. And
on this edge, along here and again right into this corner here, because that edge, you still
can't see it, right into that corner, so that thick line goes right into there, some people make
mistake of finishing it here, but it goes right into that edge there, down here, like so, across
hear. So we can just do a little bit of our smudge effect on this table and on the chair, and
still see the back of that room there, coming out here. Now if you want to, I’ll let you, when
you do your version, to use some oof techniques and the other session where we imagined
a light source and do a greater degree of shading, but that's not what this particular session
is about so I'm going to leave that shading about there, I think. So you can see, I've left in
some of the construction lines which, I think, gives quite nice dynamic feel, but, I think
that's about where I'll take that drawing too there. So, let’s just actually nock back that line
there a little bit, there we go. So, it’s at this point here that this brings us actually to the end
of the course. We've gone through a whole range of exercises, practising, you know, our
curves, different types of lines, drawing circles, rectangular blocks, extending those blocks
and now really this drawing here shows you the first stages of how to apply all those
principles to an actual drawing which, you know, is relevant to architecture, is relevant to
interiors and product, furniture and industrial design. We can see the application of
everything we've learned in this drawing and if you think about some of the other drawings
and images I've shown you, can see how this then, with your continued practise, can quite
easily take you on to those steps as well. So I hope you've enjoyed the course, I hope you've
got a lot out of it, enjoy your drawing, good luck with taking this practise further and thank
you for attending these sessions.
