ARCH 1110

This course is designed as an introduction to architectural drawing and design for students without prior experience in the fine arts. Students are guided through a series of spatial and analytical exercises that focus attention on not only how architects draw, but also the reasoning and processes embedded within the technique. Students are provided exposure to a wide range of interconnected architectural concepts and to manual and digital drawing, as well as modeling techniques for architectural and interior design. Students will learn how to represent composition, form, and space by orthographic drawing, paraline and perspective views, and freehand sketching. Three-dimensional model building techniques will also be introduced.
