Drawing I

This course is the first in a sequence of representation courses that introduce students to the visual representations of objects and the built environment. Students learn to use basic media, free-hand and manual drafting tools. The course covers geometry, basic drawing, and representation conventions in 2D and 3D, namely orthogonal projections (plans, sections and elevations) and paraline projections (axonometrics and isometrics). Lectures about conventions, methods and historical references to architects and artists’ drawings and work supplement the course.
