2. USING THE DIGITAL
DARKROOM TO DESIGN
A PORCH
T. Pitre, 2002
In early 2002, I set out to change the façade of
my little, concrete block house in town. I used my
digital camera, photo editing software, scanner and
copier to design a new front porch and walkway.
9. Designing the walkway
First, a print
is made of
the façade
with laser
printer.
Next, several
photocopies
are made of
print. Third,
preliminary
drawings are
made of the
new,
exposed
aggregate
walk.
One drawing
was scanned
and included

dimensions
