Architectural Graphics- II

WEEK 1- PROECT : HARD AND SOFT TEXTURES/ CHARCOAL RENDERING

Instructor: Ar. Roha Yousaf, Ar. Abdullah Saeed

Overview: Textures of materials refer to the visual quality of natural or artificial materials. It
describes sense (how a material looks), touch (how it feels), and functionality (how the material
works). Texture in art, architecture, and interior design enhance the quality of human life.

Texture plays an essential role in building materials. A material’s durability, usability, and
penetrability rely on the surface texture. It differs from one material to another. Texture also
varies for a single material from its fabrication, installation, and manipulation to finish.

It contributes to the physical comfort in our surroundings. Smooth textures seem cold, whereas
rough surfaces create a sense of warmth.

There are two types of textures:

• Tactile texture – feel by touch


• Visual texture – sees by eye

Textures can be of

• Soft or Hard
• Rough or Smooth
• Dull or shiny
• Dark or Light

Texture describes the surface qualities of a material such as

• The Roughness of stone/masonry


• Grain of wood
• Smoothness of glass
• The Weave of fabric etc.
