Course description and aims

This practical training is an advanced course for undergraduates in architectural design and drawing, a key course in the department of Architecture and Building Engineering. Since students at this level have already learned drawing methods for basic architectural design, this course will provide design and drawing methods of highly complex architecture, combining knowledge from the studies of architectural design, architectural planning, building structure, building materials, urban design and building environment.
The course presents techniques such as deciphering the urban context of megacities like Tokyo, a global city, and reflecting them in the concept of a real architectural design, in hopes that students will taste the pleasure of simulating a real-world architectural design work environment.

Student learning outcomes

By the end of this course, students will acquire the following skills:
1) The skills to present more advanced architectural design drawings based on drafting of accurate architectural designs
2) The skills to create architectural design concepts based on social demands
3) The skills to create solutions for the structure, equipment, and planning of highly complex architecture.
4) The skills to explain the concepts of the space and form of the architecture to a third party in an accurate and stimulating manner using words.

Keywords

Architectural design, Urban context, Complex building、Urban Design

Competencies that will be developed

✔ Specialist skills Intercultural skills ✔ Communication skills ✔ Critical thinking skills ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

In this course, students will work on the required learning set by the instructor by having their drafts checked each class and accepting advice at the midterm presentation and feedback session, then delivering the final presentation and feedback session after examining the idea further.
