This is an exercise in analysis through drawing. The building being analyzed is Alvaro Siza's Museo de Arte Contemporaneo, located in Galicia, Spain. Through both manual and digital drawing, the building unfolds and becomes an object of study. This study of the building's visible structure exposes the spatial ideas, which make way for the reproduction of the complete building as a final digital drawing.
