Sketching por La Isla #1

After a day of sweating through the heat and walking with friends, I managed to draw some of the architecture we saw. ”la cafeteria del jardín” is one of the proyects of the architect Jorge Rigau in collaboration with Juan Penabad and is located in “Jardín Botánico de Rio Piedras”. As I tried to understand it, I drew what I thought that was the floor plan; also in the understanding of the facade and its proportions I also drew a sketch of it. Getting away from the garden we went to old san juan, Puerto Rico’s colonial and historic city. There we went to see the military fort San Felipe Del Morro and draw the old colonial building that is now the Escuela de Artes Plásticas. I draw the floor plan to understand how proportions in the building where distributed and its relations with the proportions in the facade.
