To inhabit a space is to be within that space. The interiority of a room places emphasis on inhabitation. By inhabiting a room, one perceives the phenomenal qualities of that room. To inhabit a drawing is to do so imaginatively rather than perceptively. Perspective drawings can shape imagination by defining form, light, and context. They capture and frame an instant in space and time. The presence of light in a drawing creates an awareness of the outside. These qualities of drawings allow the viewer to imagine a room through inhabitation.
A series of nine rooms were developed in perspective with elements articulated through tracing, translation, rotation, and refection. Three of these nine rooms were chosen for further investigation through drawing. Drawings were then tested against formal models. / Master of Architecture
