Architectural drawings for a custom home

This wall section is drawn at 1"=1'-0" and describes the vertical placement and systems which make up the walls, floors, roof and foundation of the structure. It too references other documents in the architectural drawing set. The red annotation text helps to order the information conveyed to the contractor.

Architectural drawings for a custom home

We rely on three main devices in architectural drawings to convey information: drawings, schedules and specifications. Together these documents organize and catalog all the decisions necessary to build our architecture in a very precise way. This video tutorial + blog post details the process + documents I create for my custom architectural projects.

Architectural drawings for a custom home

The floor plan organizes much of the visual information in the set, indexing and referring to other documents: elevations, sections, details, schedules and specifications. It's drawn at 1/4"=1'-0" and dimensioned to show the general layout of walls, doors, windows and floor planes, but not detailed enough to show everything. I use AutoCadLT to draw these plans.
