ARC-244 Residential Design
ARC-244 Residential Design is intended for Architectural Technology majors. Students will be introduced to the fundamental concepts required for the design of residential structures. Students will study historically significant architectural works. Using these works as precedence students will complete several design vignettes for residential structures. Throughout the semester students will explore topics that include various architectural drawings and presentations, architectural history, building codes and sustainability. The semester will culminate with a public oral presentation of an original residence expressed through models, drawings and digital images. The material covered in this class is presented in a lecture format with laboratory studies and field trips. Successful completion of this class will prepare students for the ARC 246 Commercial Design class.
