What is a quick test?

The quick question is the exam for the postgraduate entrance examination of architecture (including urban planning). The quick topic of architecture is to give a topic within the specified time and do a project according to the requirements. It must be done independently on the spot, and the time varies from 3 to 8 hours.

As an important examination subject for postgraduate entrance examination, it is mainly aimed at the design, historical direction and architectural master of academic master, while the technical direction of academic master may take the examination of mathematics II, heat transfer and structural mechanics. However, at present, the situation of various schools is more complicated. Some schools do not re-examine the initial test, some do not re-examine the initial test, some take all the tests, and very few schools do not need to take the test (only from the historical perspective, it is abnormal for the design not to take quick answers).

Preparation before quick questions and related matters needing attention:

Everyone's attention is often focused on the design and expression of some quick questions themselves, but sharpening the knife does not mistake the woodcutter. Some of my common tips are shared with you here.

The choice of 1. papers and related test papers only exists when candidates prepare for the test themselves. Many colleges and units tend to write papers by them because they have their own inspection purposes. For example, copying paper (also called sketch) is suitable for investigating the most commonly used paper for architects to express their design intentions and design results quickly. What I want to say is not how to use each kind of paper, but that in the process of practice, everyone should participate in the expression practice of various papers, so that they will not panic when they meet the unified exam in the examination room.

On the other hand, when the examination paper is provided by the examinee, there are many preparations that can be made:

(1) General principle of paper selection: First of all, it is important to give full play to your good expressive force, and then use a piece of paper with low transparency but enough to see the pencil lines below. All kinds of paper have different characteristics, so you should try to figure it out by yourself in the process of practice. As far as transparency is concerned, being too transparent is not allowed in some colleges and universities, and being completely opaque is not conducive to improving the speed of comparing and overlapping drawings. This side ball is still to be played.

⑵ Auxiliary axis grid: Use HB or B pencil to gently spread a certain proportion of grid on the paper, so that you can see clearly, but not too deep, which will affect the expression of the drawing, and the lines are too shallow to see. It is best to cover the same piece of paper with a suitable depth. The grid spacing is drawn with the design module commonly used by oneself and the drawing ratio that I practice (for example, 8mx8m, 6mx6m, drawn on paper with the ratio of 1: 200, that is, 4cmx4cm, 3cmx3cm). This is mainly for the axis, whether it is freehand expression or ruler expression, it will play an auxiliary role, and secondly, it will eventually form a certain composition effect on the map.

⑶ Font: Write the name of the design project in a square with a side length of 3-4 cm (such as "Sales Department"), and then write "Quick Design" on it in a slightly smaller font. It is recommended to use simple and generous fonts. Similarly, the design of the grid describes the design name (such as 1 plan, etc.). ) can also be laid in advance. However, considering the inverted composition of drawings and the size of various drawings, it is still recommended to make layout when designing grids, because layout has a great influence on the drawing effect. Or you can write it on a small piece of paper and then stack it on the map during the exam.

(4). This is the most critical but not necessarily point: choose the appropriate papers according to the expression methods and tools you are good at. The specific operation should be considered according to your own situation, so I won't go into details here.

2. Use a pen:

(1) stylus-brand: optional, it is recommended to use Goyle disposable stylus. This disposable stylus has a variety of thickness specifications from 0.05 to 1.2, which is very suitable for the expression of pen bone lines in more rigorous technical drawings.

⑵ Painter's pen-brand: optional, it is recommended that Heroes 238 and 59 play the role of painter's pen in free and unrestrained freehand brushwork expression, which is more effective, but saves the time of changing pens. Although the time for changing pens is not long, you should know that every minute counts in the examination room. If you use a pen with a heavy expression, the time consumption of changing pens will accumulate.

Reference book:

The second edition of 100 cases of rapid architectural design published by Li Zhitao Southeast University Press is available in the market, and the beige cover is 16 square. The style of this book is a typical "Southeast Style". As we all know, Li Lao is an expert in this field, and he is also responsible for the annual southeast fast-topic remedial class. In short, the works included in the book are free and unrestrained, and the collected works have a typical effect of expressing excellent works by hand. Moreover, the book makes a relatively in-place comment on each of the collected works from both positive and negative angles, and the advantages and disadvantages are clear at a glance. Of course, some contents and statements are inevitably controversial, and everyone can keep their own views to compare and consider the problem. In addition, the preface of this book was specially added by Li Lao in the second edition, which is concise and enlightening to practice. Xu Weiguo, editor-in-chief, Architectural Design Guidance Series: Rapid Architectural Design Methods, published by Tsinghua University Publishing House, with black cover 16.

This book is theoretical, but slightly weaker than the last one. However, due to its integrity, many problems are described in detail in the chapter. At the same time, the collected works have the rigorous style of Tsinghua University, and the lines are difficult to express. Most of them are expressed by ruler tools, which is suitable for students who are preparing to apply for Tsinghua and those who are good at ruler expression.

Generally speaking, there are many quick tricks that can come in handy in this respect, but they are far less than the above aspects. Mainly because the quick questions themselves need long-term practice and accumulation.

General drawing sequence and work content:

Scheme stage The scheme stage referred to here generally covers all plans, and the main elevation, space perspective and layout design are the most important drawing contents for determining a scheme. Other similar sectional views, sub-elevation views and general plans can be generated by the first three. (Note: The site design of the general plan should be completed together with the entrance plan, and the effects of colors in each stage should be expressed.

Generally, the test time for quick questions is 4-8 hours, and 1 board is required, which is professional drawing paper. However, paper with drawing function, T-square pencil, rubber stylus or drawing pen are not allowed. You can look at the urban planning and design data set of China Building Industry Press.

Different schools have different requirements. Quick question is basically an eight-hour design. In recent years, planning majors have to take an examination of single building design. As for whether to draw with a ruler, it's entirely up to you. Schools do not require it, but it is not excluded that some schools have requirements for perspective drawings, such as black and white drawings or color drawings. As for watercolor, it's almost impossible ..... It takes a lot of skill to use watercolor for eight hours. Everyone basically uses colored lead, markers and needles, which are quick and effective. You see, watercolors and gouache need to be pasted in advance. If they are not well drawn, they will be pasted ... perspective is of course necessary for your supplementary question. The most important thing in architectural design is three-dimensional expression, and it is impossible not to draw. At least ensure the color expression of the perspective. If it is flat, we can just add the environment to the first floor and add some shadows and plant facades to the facade.
