To develop the capacity for critical observation and understanding of form through drawing:
o Identify complex geometries, recognize them in singular works of architecture, analyze them, and represent them in the different systems (dihedral, conic, and axonometric).
To understand the laws of sunlight and apply them to specific temporal and architectural scenarios through drawing.
To be sensitive to the relationships between architecture and place: form, space, structure, light and material.
Reflect on the usefulness of drawing and geometry, and its possibilities to apply in the project exercise:
-Identify architectural project strategies and express them through drawing, with the appropriate tools, procedures and systems of representation.
appropriate tools, procedures and representation systems.
-To know theoretical and plastic references of the history of architecture, to interpret them to produce artistic and design speeches of their own.
Discriminate the use of materials, techniques, formats and representation systems for each phase of the drawing and project process:
-Develop the capabilities of drawing as a language.
-To understand drawing as a research tool, useful in the learning and decision making process.
-To link drawing to the daily exercise of recording, analysis and proposal.
Involvement and debate in group work. In individual work: initiative for experimentation, increase of the critical sense and the ability to evaluate processes and results
to evaluate processes and results, both their own and those of others.
