Learning outcomes |
To encourage the ability to see, understand and communicate architecture through representation methodologies and tools adapted to different architectural design contexts.
To develop an effective visual culture in the graphic communication of architecture, with a focus on 2D computer-aided design (CAD) technologies and the production of architectural graphic outputs.
Through the use of vector drawings, photographs and freehand drawings, to explore different tools and methodologies for software integration, according to the various contexts and phases of architectural practice, from idea competitions to execution design.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Assessment in the course unit is continuous and face-to-face and therefore requires mandatory attendance, active participation, regular and continuous engagement in discussion, a minimum quality of work, and the fulfilment of the defined objectives. Consequently, attendance at all classes and the completion of all assignments do not automatically guarantee approval in the course unit.
Continuous (weekly) supervision of the work by the teaching staff is mandatory.
The final assessment results from the sum of the exercises, graded on a scale from 0 to 20.
Late submissions will not be accepted.
As this is a course unit with continuous assessment and a final examination, approval is obtained through the following teaching/learning assessment calculation:
Theoretical–Practical Component: 100%
[Grade obtained from the sum of the various exercises/submissions].
