The Architect's Sketchbook 1

Catalog description

Going back to the 15th century, if not before, one way for an architect to become educated in the art and science of building was to travel and sketch what was built elsewhere. We will be broadly following this model though our subject will be the built environment more broadly. While we are intensely observing and recording these spaces, we will consider how cities are put together and shape the lives of the people that inhabit them. ART 2080 concentrates on developing drawing skills. ART 2090 is refining those skills during a semester abroad.
