Hand-drawn architectural artwork that captures places closest to your heart — homes, room interior, venues, cars, and more.
Why I draw old places
Each piece is drawn in fine line ink and watercolor, combining design precision with a touch of nostalgia — turning homes, venues, and meaningful places into lasting keepsakes.
This is me, Adelya, a nostalgic artist based in San Francisco.
Old places hold stories — weathered walls, crooked windows, the marks of time. Through my custom architectural drawings, I strive to capture the feeling behind a space, not just how it looks.
Absolutely. I collaborate with architects, interior designers, and real estate professionals to create custom presentation pieces or client gifts. Bulk and licensing options are available for professional use.
DO YOU WORK WITH DESIGNERS OR ARCHITECTS?
Yes! I can include surrounding trees, signage, light posts, people, or interior views — anything that adds context and personality. Each addition is designed to balance artistic accuracy with atmosphere.
CAN YOU INCLUDE PEOPLE, LANDSCAPE, OR INTERIOR DETAILS?
Most drawings take 3–4 weeks to complete, depending on scale and detail. I’ll keep you updated along the way. Larger or multi-building projects may take longer and are scheduled in advance.
HOW LONG DOES AN ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING TAKE TO COMPLETE?
I create architectural portraits of homes, historic landmarks, storefronts, and corporate buildings. Whether personal or professional, each commission captures craftsmanship and charm of your special place.
WHAT TYPES OF BUILDINGS DO YOU DRAW?
Architectural commissions typically range from $350 to $1,200 depending on size, level of detail, and number of structures. Each piece is custom-made to fit your project — please reach out with your vision for a quote.
HOW MUCH DOES AN ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING COST?
An architectural watercolor drawing is a detailed hand-rendering of a building or structure. Using your reference photos, I recreate its lines, perspective, and light with artistic precision — turning architectural design into nostalgic art.
