ARCH 320A - Architectural Representation I (Undergraduate)

Institution:

Washington University in St Louis

Subject:

Description:

Representation is the means by which architectural form, space, and ideas are explored, conveyed and studied. This course is intended to bring a fundamental understanding of the capacity and possibility for representation to affect the process and outcome of the architectural endeavor. While it is expected that students gain proficiency and knowledge of a broad range of techniques and convention, greatest emphasis is placed on the ability to recognize how, when, and why different representational means are appropriately employed at various points in the design process, and to easily move between them. The course works simultaneously with both the convenience of known elements and the exploration of unknown or "envisioned" concepts and spaces.
