Elements of Architecture (ARC2121.01)

Don Sherefkin

Introduction to the discipline of architectural exploration through direct experience, drawing and modeling. We begin with a series of abstract exercises which explore ways in which meaning is embedded in form, space, and movement.

These exercises gradually build into more complex architectural compositions organized around particular problems.

Workshops will focus on a range of representation techniques, including observational drawing, speculative sketching, analysis, collage, orthographic projection and both physical and digital modeling.

Students will learn to work in scale to generate projects that will be reviewed during regular studio critiques.
