Drawing Soane: a Comic by Eu Jin Lim

April 28, 2015 by Mariabruna Fabrizi 1 Comment

Young architectural assistant Eu Jin Lim chose the house John Soane built for himself in Lincoln’s Inn Fields in London as the setting of a short comic. The drawing is an experiment on the ability of the comic medium to narrate architecture in comparison to more conventional orthographic drawings.  The house, fragmented to create an atlas of multiple vignettes, was chosen “for its complexity, and rich story-telling nature behind each room in the building.” The comic is produced as part of the 15-week Masters by Conversion course at the Mackintosh School of Architecture, 2014-2015.
