Objectives
The purpose of this course is:
- to develop the ability to see and understand space.
- using visual aids to train the ability to "read" reality and in the opposite direction to train the ability to read visual representations of it.
- to develop the ability to reproduce spatial situations and give an account of one’s own ideas, with an emphasis on visual communication.
- to support the development of skill in sketching, drawing, painting and modelling spaces.
- to develop the ability to use images in the work process and in the presentation of work
After completing the course students will be able to
- use tools for basic spatial analysis with supervisor support.
- reproduce spatial situations using different visual means.
- critically examine their investigations of space and communicate and justify their observations visually.
- present different representational techniques and methods for reproducing the form of spaces and producing images of them.
- carry out their own simple projects in spatial design with supervisor support.
Content
- Analysis of space and spatial structures with the aid of observations and freehand sketches on site.
- Different methods for reproducing the form of spaces and producing images of them.
- Sketch techniques, perspective, assignments in form reproduction, composition and colour science.
- Production of their own projects in form and spatial design.
