The Monsoon Semester of the CEPT Foundation Programme inculcates foundational design skills through sequential exercises focused on perfecting freehand and perspective drawing, visualizing and drawing complex compositions. Students learn to make technical drawings using orthographic projections, surface development and exploded views of complex objects; develop the skill of estimating sizes and begin to engage with anthropometrics. Ordering principles, colour theory, imaginative drawing and deciphering and interpreting styles help them develop more complex skills. Alongside, parallel exercises focus on describing objects and presenting their own work in writing, while guest speaker lectures offer exposure to other disciplines.

Live sketching the nature around with 5 minutes per sketch along with capturing light and shadow in the sketches through graphite pencils and charcoal crayons by directly creating surface instead of outlines.

Sketching the objects and built around with confident strokes of microns.

Exploring AutoCAD tools with making the object around for example mobile phone in this case and exploring Adobe Photoshop tools by creating an artwork. Source: Unknown

Making the surface development of solids with accuracy in digital media and then making the models using the surface development with making half cuts and full cuts and joining them with edge to edge joinery.

Dismantling the alarm clock, measuring them and then drafting the parts precisely makes one realize the role of each part and understanding the science that goes behind the small object.

Bringing out the creativity in generating visuals through words and then sketching the same improves the visualization and representation skills. The image displays a sketch of the description written (on the left) and a part of the description (on the right).

Interpreting objects an d personalities with style and order in mind and then representing the same style with sketches of object or collages. For instance representing the glass used by Norman Forster in most of his works by showing transparency in the collage. Source: Unknown

Drawing assemblages with taking care of perspective and spacing and then adding colours based on a colour scheme to understand the relativity of colours.

Making tones, tints and shades to match the with the image and learn to make them as close as possible so that the output generated relates closely to the image. Source: Unknown

Generating colour palattes from works of personality (in this case Peter Eisenman) and also with a mood in mind which represents that mood and though being extracted from different images, the colours relate to each other. Source: Unknown
