The Archive of the past 

During my enchanting journey through Siena, I was spellbound by the city's stunning Renaissance architecture. Each structure, from the unadorned elegance of simple brickwork to the awe-inspiring beauty of ornate churches, seemed to tell its own story, echoing with the whispers of its artistic and historical heritage. Armed with a sketchbook and an eager heart, I set about capturing the essence of this architectural splendor, focusing particularly on the graceful fluted columns and the timeless allure of Romanesque arches that characterize Siena’s remarkable urban landscape.
Inspired by these classical elements, I sought to create a utopian space, a vision that transcended time and place. I turned to Rhino, a powerful digital design tool, to model my ideas and bring them to life. My final masterpiece culminated in a section drawing that embodies a rich interplay of form and function—each layer adding to the narrative I wished to portray.

The drawing unfolds in three distinct layers: the first showcases a delicate line drawing, meticulously outlining the architectural components that form the spine of the design. The second layer introduces shadows, tracing the dance of light across surfaces, infusing the structure with a sense of dynamism and realism. Finally, in a captivating blend within Photoshop, I added shading that enhances the drawing's depth, creating a striking chiaroscuro effect that draws the eye and stirs the imagination.

In this synthesis of traditional artistry and contemporary technology, I aimed not only to reflect the beauty that surrounded me but also to evoke a sense of timeless wonder. I invite all who view my work to step into this imagined space, where past and present converge, and to experience the utopia of creativity that emerges from the rich tapestry of history.
