UNDERSTANDING ARCHITECTURE
Overview:
The Visual Study is an investigation into a chosen area of Design. It must include both analytical and practical responses. Specific Details: Understanding Architecture can be a complex undertaking. Understanding how it looks is one thing, but understanding the physics, mathematics, philosophy and engineering is quite another. The aim of this Visual Study is to introduce you to some of the core ideas of how we can develop an understanding of architecture. These ideas will then be put into action via a set brief. Word Count: - 1000 words over 10 pages Introduction: 250 words Conclusion: 200 words It is essential you understand and use Visual Arts Terminology: http://s2d2016.weebly.com/visual-literacy2.html Referencing Guide:
You must reference ALL images and quotes. I suggest you use the Reference function in Word, using this will make sure you’re referencing is consistent.
