My next study is about architectural design, and I also hope to combine architectural design with maps and myself to complete it.
1.Brainstorming
1) Geographies & Architectural Design

2) Make the figure-ground diagram
This is an effective way to study the relationship between space and function in a city.

showing the relationship between the surroundings of the building site and the building itself.

3) I decided to add something with a map of my hometown
because the hometown is always the warmest place in one's heart.
Yingtan City, Jiangxi Province, China
This is a screenshot from the Google map.
I will deal with this map in the way of making a map of the surrounding environment of the building site.

Edward Fairburn, British Artist

| Western Front Cutout (Part I) |
The artist created a hollowed-out figure on a map using ink and a sash knife.
And the colour is from a watercolour painting under the map.
I was struck by the combination of the map and the watercolour shown in this painting, although the watercolour and the map are not together. I was able to use the original lines of the map to outline the figure by changing the colour of the contour, which was interesting.

A case study should have much more detail and analytical commentary on the artwork explored, with context to your own project. You are completing the work, but you need to give more depth and detail to your commentary and writing, this could be achieved by adding more research as this should inform your work and choices in your project development.
