When did C.B. become interested in architecture? I need to ask him, but I think it's at the end of 10th grade year.  He started paying attention to the structure of interesting buildings in the city we live in.  There are always tall risers being built.  He started sketching with pencils as well as doing sketch up on Google.

This summer C.B. checked out a few architecture books from a public library near his grandparents' house and started making models as he planned before we left Taiwan.  He took the materials he bought at the supplies shop in Taiwan with us to the States.

He was inspired by this building in the book and starting drawing it on paper.

This is what he did.

Then he applied water color paint on it.

  He started making a model, but not the same as the one above.  He did have a sketchup paper, but I don't know where he put it.

Before the summer, C.B. already asked his aunt (my sister-in-law) if she could show him where to buy materials to make models.  She said sure since she majored in Intereior Design in college and made quite a few models.  The only one she had kept was this one.  And C.B. was so amazed and inspired.

She also showed C.B. some of the sketches she did in college.

Wow, she's quite good...

C.B. made two more models after that during this summer.  I will show them in the next two articles...
