To establish drawing as a tool of observation, a tool of thinking and a tool of representation, this course consists of three different types of drawing exercises: Studio based exercises will, by degrees shift their focus from training the craft of technique in drawing toward using drawing as an analytical and representation technique. Colour, composition, documentation of different sites û with some visits to specific sites - , typography and basics of graphic design will be subjects of the course. Ink and pastels will be introduced as drawing materials, wood, plexiglas and metals as model making materials. The idea of transformation introduced in the first semester of the course will be extended to include digital media. Learning how digital media operates and is distinct and different from activities of drawing and model making photoshop and powerpoint will be the first steps into digital representation. Architectural drawing, line-drawings of floor plans, sections and details, will become more concrete, will develop from freehand to hard line drawings following the convention of architectural drawing in respect of line types, hatching, representing materials, dimensioning, lettering and grade of detailing depending on scale.

Honing skills in drawing and model making by practising, understand through application: * using drawing as a tool of observation, exploring of form (and circumstances) through drawing, analysing of form (and circumstances) through drawing. * using drawing as a conceptual tool, a method of developing a conceptual structure, developing drawing as a form of thought. * using drawing as a representation tool, expressing own ideas and designs through drawing. * using model making as a way of transforming drawings into the 3rd dimension * understanding the conventions of architectural representation and acquiring the skills necessary to use these conventions

Skills in line drawing, free drawing, sketching and model making are honed within different types of practical exercises accompanied by a series of short lectures to deepen knowledge in architectural representation. Inc and pastel drawings will be experienced as well as first digital means of representation. In model making, the handling of wood, Plexiglas and metal will be introduced.
