The Street Views are my unique style and have played a large part in making my architectural artwork instantly recognisable and unique.
My style of depicting a street view allows the viewer’s eye to focus on one particular building and appreciate all the detail and complexities in that one facade without distraction.
To achieve this, I chose to leave the context blank and remove all the clutter and distractions from shop signs, advertisements, bus stops and cars. All the detailed drawing is focused just on one building. Although the detail in the adjacent buildings is removed, I outline them to hint at the mass and height of the surroundings and to ground the focal building in its location.
This style of depicting a street view was inspired by my time at the University of Cambridge studying Architecture. At University I loved making models and this often involved making a large site model from white card. I would model all the surrounding buildings in simple white card, but I would create my new piece of architecture in much greater detail with a different material. Then, when I photographed the site model my new design would stand out from the rest of the surrounding white card buildings.
In my University projects I was really interested in the idea of buildings being carefully positioned at the end of a road so they acted like a beacon drawing people along the path towards them. These ideas of city vistas and planned views really interested me as an architecture student which meant I was always on the look out for these views towards buildings when I was exploring a city. These photos and sketches eventually developed and materialised into the refined architectural street views you see in this collection of artwork.
