ROMMarch 2013

Independent Project

Pencil drawing I 8” x 10”

Inspired by the Fall 2012 Drawing

Assignment from ARCH 250 displayed in

the MacDonald Harrington Building,

I decided to put my own modern twist on

the concept of a building and its context.

The ROM is a vibrantly modern addition to

a historic, monumental building. I chose

to display this by depicting the addition

in the stone, which represents the historic

piece of the composition.

Although such a modern addition

protruding from the stone should seem

out of context here, it does not due to

our preexisting understanding of the

ROM’s historic beauty, emphasized by

its dramatic addition.
