DRAWING A POINT/DOT A point itself has no size, every line consists of a point, so it is the founding element of everything. In architecture, an architect selects various points in the design space that should provide a certain space or outlook. They are used to create texture or form, and space.

MAKING A STRAIGHT LINE A line is a continuous combination of dots, with an exact distance between each dot. Lines define and create shapes, forms and space. They are used to create texture, patterns, and color tones. Big architects use a different combination of lines can tell a different story each time.

TRACING A SHAPE This is where the end of one line meets the beginning of another. Shapes can be of two types, geometrical and organic shapes. Geometrical shapes have exact angles at every edge, they include triangles, squares, circles, etc. Organic shapes do not have proper angles to their shapes and are meant to be natural.

DRAWING A FORM Form is the three dimensional combination of dots, lines and shapes. Form has height, area, mass and more than one surface. Each surface of their form has a different view from each angle. There are two types of forms which are, Concrete form and Illusion form.

PAINTING IN COLOURS Color is one of the most expressive elements of architecture or design. The best architects in India use color to their advantage. Color gives life to elements and has the power to influence or bring out our feelings. The primary colors red, blue and yellow are the foundation of all other colors.
