Architecture course introduces the core principles, history, and practices of architecture, emphasizing the relationship between form, function, and context. It includes architectural drawing, model-making, spatial design, and critical analysis. The course fosters creativity, visual literacy, and understanding of structural systems, design theory, and sustainable, culturally responsive architectural solutions.
Design concepts are developed through spatial principles like scale, proportion, and movement, using sketches and 3D visual studies.
Geometry is manipulated through digital tools to create and analyze spatial volumes and architectural compositions.
Textures, reflections, and transparencies are digitally simulated to study the material impact on space and atmosphere.
Lighting—both natural and artificial—is used to shape mood, define surfaces, and influence the emotional tone of a space.
Digital modeling expresses structural systems and integrates construction elements like frames and skins into design.
Spaces are designed as experiential journeys that communicate story and identity through form, material, and light.
Apply fundamental design principles such as balance, proportion, scale, rhythm, and harmony in architectural concepts.Develop basic spatial layouts and compositions that respond to human needs and environmental context.
Produce accurate architectural drawings, including plans, elevations, sections, and axonometric views.Use manual and digital tools to visualize and communicate design ideas effectively.
Construct physical and digital models to represent architectural concepts and spatial relationships.Demonstrate craftsmanship, precision, and scale awareness in model-making.
Understand principles of sustainable architecture, including passive design, material efficiency, and energy use.Integrate environmentally responsive strategies into small-scale architectural projects.
