Assigned Department Objectives
Teaching Method
Outline:
Design a small scale building. Learning objective: to understand the necessary operations to work with scale and space composition. Fundamentals design method, how to draw architectural drawings, graphic expression methods. Architectural planning: to understand zoning, and flow plan. Architecture structure: to understand rigid frames.
Style:
Studio style. The students will have their sketches checked and accessorized, and receive advice from the instructors.
Notice:
The students, while developing original ideas, should develop self-learning methods and attitudes of architectural design, and raise their interest in architecture through the visit to buildings and read books related to architecture. This course requires 90 hours of self-study time. The students are required to secure sufficient time for the production of each assignment and respect the submission deadline.
