As a senior in urban and rural planning, I have a lot of detailed knowledge about urban and rural planning. Many people say that I have never heard of this major, but it is actually quite good.
My undergraduate school is Hebei Normal University of Science and Technology, a second college, but this major is very interesting. Next, I'll tell
about the daily life of urban and rural planning professionals:
First, urban and rural planning professionals should be able to draw.
Although urban and rural planning is an engineering discipline, this major needs some painting skills. Generally, schools will offer architectural arts I, II, III and IV to train urban planners' painting skills, which may be a bit difficult for many students, because after all, there is no painting skills. When you are a freshman, you can't do anything, but when the teacher comes up, you won't be asked to draw difficult pictures. We all start with the simplest, so don't be too anxious, and you can draw good works step by step. So what are the contents of a series of architectural arts?
① Sketch basics
Friends with artistic skills must know sketch, and it doesn't matter if they don't. I didn't know anything at first. In class, the teacher will talk about the theoretical basis of sketch, which may sound abstract, but when I draw a hand, I can realize the abstinence inside, such as a little perspective and a two-point perspective. These are all relatively basic. Most of our classes are drawing, and I ..
Actually, in art, pencils have to be cut into long and thin shapes, and they can't be cut off. I learned it by cutting several pencils. Because our major is not an art major, we are required to draw simple sketches. We can draw almost good drawings by learning simple cable arrangement and practicing more. After painting, you can show off with your family. If you are interested in drawing, you can enjoy drawing more. Students who are not interested in drawing by nature should not be discouraged, and they will find their progress after studying for a period of time!
② Introduction to Pen Drawing
We learned this course online at home. At that time, we prepared a simple drawing tool, and we could draw well with the teacher's rhythm. In each class, the teacher will teach some simple physical drawing steps, from simple stones, floors and so on, to some flowers and plants, which are very simple, but the more difficult ones are some ancient buildings! Of course, since the city rules have been chosen, ancient buildings can't run away. The ancient building is difficult on its roof. When we watch many costume dramas or visit some tourist attractions, we will see ancient buildings with sloping roofs, and some ancient buildings will have tiles on their roofs, and the eaves of more exquisite ancient buildings will be very beautiful, so we have to sigh the wisdom of our ancients.
this part of the content is still quite rare, because the thinking is simple, and it may not be expressed in your hand. In addition, we have a lot of homework, so it is very common to stay up late to draw pictures. However, pen drawing is only that little thing, and I am not afraid when I learn it. At that time, I also found a lot of drawing videos on bilibili, and I learned it after several times. After I finished painting, I posted some beautiful pictures on the wall of my room, which was a reward for myself.
③ Watercolor basics
Some students may feel confused. How can studying urban and rural planning be the same as being an art student? I am also puzzled about this question, but these are all for training the professional quality of city planners. Generally, students who study city planners have no bad taste. I have learned a lot about color on the basis of watercolor. What impressed me is the influence of color on people's emotions. After learning, I feel that color is really too important.
When learning watercolor, the teacher asked us to adjust colors at the beginning, add pigments and water to the palette, mix different colors, and bring out colors with different hues. It was really a great experience. Then I used my imagination to draw pictures with my own thoughts. At that time, many students in our class created different "schools", such as freehand brushwork, realism, impressionism, abstraction and so on. Watercolor class is really suitable for all students to learn.
④ marker basics
Our marker is a common marker in our life. In fact, markers come in many colors. As soon as we buy markers, we start to make color cards, that is, we divide the colors into different categories for future use. In fact, the hand-painted strokes of marker are quite simple, and the more difficult is the line draft. The line drawing is also the pen-and-ink drawing that we draw. The pen-and-ink drawing is only black and white, and the key points of expression are not visible. The color rendering of the marker is even more vivid.
Actually, this mainly depends on my previous foundation. I found it difficult at first, but I felt relaxed after drawing a few pictures.
Second, there are many internship opportunities for urban and rural planning majors.
For example, we have been internship since the beginning of our freshman semester, and we organized a trip to Hongcun, Anhui. There are many Huizhou buildings there, and we enjoyed the time when we were sketching outside with a small bench. Under the blue bricks and green tiles, we drew vivid lines on white paper. At that time, because of the epidemic, we came back within a few days, but we all cherished that time.
Later, in our sophomore year, we worked as an intern in the local area. We went to many tourist attractions and felt the beauty of architecture and the charm of urban development. When I first came into contact with the city planning, I might think it was fun, but I gradually felt that the city planning major was a professional with a long history. We have gained a lot of professional experience in planning during many internships, which also provides a reference for our theoretical study. Planning is to get in touch with the external environment.
Third, urban and rural planning majors need to learn a lot of software.
We began to learn CAD when we were freshmen, and we learned the soul of drawing from one instruction to another. I remember that our homework at that time was to make an indoor floor plan. I found a lot of information and drew the room line by line. At that time, I also referred to my home floor plan and knew the dimensions of many houses. To make a comfortable house for people to live in is also very wise for designers. Later, in the summer vacation, we learned SU modeling, which is based on CAD. Modeling is really cool, and it is a very happy thing to watch the "house" designed by ourselves emerge bit by bit. Moreover, PS is also a must-learn. We learn many simple PS operations by ourselves. It is a necessary accomplishment for every city planner to accumulate experience in the process of learning slowly.
Conclusion: In fact, there are many aspects of urban and rural planning that I don't know. I want to share this with you to encourage students with ideas to apply for urban and rural planning and make contributions to the urban and rural planning of our motherland!
