  1. These drawings are much better than the ones you called "poché renderings". Try and add some more poché to the sections and plans, with the use of furniture, textures for the gardens, patterns for the floorings, and a clear demarcation of outside/inside. Try and find inspiration in books and magazines. Good luck!
