Learning outcomes |
In the "Drawing for Architecture II/2," students refine their observational, analytical, and creative skills, exploring various materials and tools to effectively express architectural ideas. Key objectives include mastering line as a primary graphic element, understanding perspective and vanishing points, and representing human figures and their proportions within architectural spaces. Exercises also focus on the role of light in architecture and introduce digital drawing and portfolio creation to prepare students for professional practice. In the second semester, students will focus more on hand drawing and sketches to enhance their communication skills. Teaching methods emphasize hands-on, project-based learning with continuous feedback, balancing traditional sketching with digital tools. This approach aligns with course objectives, allowing students to apply visual and digital communication skills essential for architecture, preparing them for future challenges.

Syllabus |
The coherence between the program content of the "Drawing for Architecture II/2" course and the learning objectives is crucial for developing students' architectural skills. The study of perspective helps students understand three-dimensional representation in two-dimensional spaces using concepts like vanishing points and the "Golden Rule," essential for creating balanced compositions. The human figure is explored in terms of scale, volumetry, and proportion, using the Modulor to integrate human dimensions into designs, ensuring functional and aesthetically pleasing spaces. Perception and representation of space are addressed, allowing effective communication of architectural complexity. Color influences the perception of space, helping create functional, emotionally resonant environments. Digital recording prepares students for professional practice, enabling them to create digital portfolios. This course ensures students are equipped for the challenges of contemporary architecture.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The assessment in the curricular unit "Drawing for Architecture II/2" is continuous and spans the entire semester, including students' self-assessment. This evaluation is structured around two fundamental pillars:Quality of Work and Responsiveness: This pillar evaluates the clarity and effectiveness of graphical communication, the quality of the presentation (textures, shadows, and lines), and the appropriate choice of materials. The ability to respond to proposed exercises is essential to demonstrate understanding of the concepts addressed.Autonomous Research and Innovation: This pillar considers students' interest in conducting research and applying innovative techniques, particularly the use of digital tools. Commitment to research and exploration of new approaches are highly valued.Assessment criteria include attendance, communication between faculty and students, and the quality of graphical expression. Self-assessment allows students to reflect on their performance and identify
