subject: Why Architectural Designers Like Watercolor Perspective Rendering Than Other Forms Of Presentation [print this page] Flair for art is also a must for an architect along with the engineering mindset, which is a known necessity. How much tensile strength would a building face or able to sustain, or how much span of beam is required for a building to provide its required protection from natural forces that act on the structure would not be comprehended well by the client whose house is being designed by the architect. What would rather appeal to the client would be a drawing of the building along with its surrounding in its completed state. The drawing if prepared in color rather than pure white and black would be of greater interest to the client. Color is used for this reason in an architect's rendition of the building and due to its special properties the reason why architects like watercolor rendering to using any other paint material.
Water color has the inherent property of transparency, and this is also one of the most important reasons why architects like watercolor rendering. Blending of the underlying sketch with the overlapping color or paint occurs properly if watercolor is used as the paint material.
The line sketch that the architect has created which is the main and most relevant detail in the entire display remains visible to the required eye, while the flair and flamboyance that the mix of water color splashed upon it turns the sketch into an attractive effect for the client.
Watercolor pencils are also available which makes the painting job much simpler given the geometric shapes and edges that needs to be highlighted as well as retained. This type of pencil using paint material of high standards is not available in any other form of paint.
Water color also blends very aptly upon white background which is the color of the art paper that architects normally use for their drawings and designs. The contrast that is generated by a proper spread of color upon a white paper accentuates the underlying outline drawing of the structure that needs to be given attention to.
The comparatively low cost of the watercolor given its high degree of paint quality is another and very logical reason why architects like watercolor rendering.
