ARCH 211 - Architectural Drawing I (3)

Designing for the built environment requires cultivating the ability to compose form simultaneously in both two- and three-dimensional space. In this course we explore architectural language and graphical standards of two-dimensional graphic composition as a foundation for three-dimensional graphic compositions. Our goals are to develop formal technical drawing skills that lead to understanding the relationship between two-dimensional design and three-dimensional design; to cultivate the ability to encode and decode abstract representations in the field of design/architecture; and to enhance the ability to visually and graphically communicate design intent. For majors in architecture or interior design only. Technical/studio format. Cross-listed with IARC 211. Offered: Fall.
