ARNAUD DE MEYER SKETCHES: WORK FOR UNESCO LUXEMBOURG June'19

04/07/2019

In May-June I worked for the Luxembourg Commission for Cooperation with UNESCO designing what they call an educational kit with the purpose to learn the children to distinguish the different historical periods in the built environment of our City.

Welcome on my blog!

As far as I remember I have always been drawing.

As a kid I drew and imagined my games, my stories and my heroes.

Later I realized that I could also draw things so that they might become real.

That is what I do everyday as an architect. I make sketches of places and buildings that do not exist yet, I research by sketching what and how these places and buildings are meant to become.

To feed my creativity I need to observe and spend time registering all what has already been done before. I do it by sketching on location as an urban sketcher.

While sketching I take my time in a place, observing, feeling, understanding and apreciating it fully. I record through hand drawing, not knowing when it resurfaces while designing.

Most of all, sketching on location is a very nice way to connect with local people.

I am very happy to share on this blog some drawings and sketches I made on location as an urban sketcher.

I hope you'll enjoy it!
