Map Project

The above hand drawn map is the view of my society from my balcony on 9th floor. The most special thing about this view is the greenery. The area remains calm and peaceful in early morning and lively and happening in the evening.

Line Drawing of Map

Stage 2- Icons

My map contains mostly greenery, so I wanted to show the garden area with a separate icon.

The next icon that I made was a simple one, but very important as there are many flower beds that have been designed in the area to grow short trees and the cemented space is also used for people to sit sometimes.

To add tress, these were the 3 types of trees that I made to have some variation, the same way there are different types of trees in the garden.

Stage 3- Color

I started by adding colour to the grass area and adding the grass icons above it. Then, I added color to the fountain area.

Then, I started adding colour to the walls of the club. While adding color there, I realised that some of the lines were not properly connected, so I made sure the connect them from path to path in order to fill color.

Final Submission

After making a few adjustment, I was finally able to complete my map. I think I was able to capture the fact the area is very green in my digital map.

Although, I feel like I could have practiced more to add textures on the walls of the club.

I also wanted to add some texture for the water in the fountain area.
