Objectius de l'assignatura

This course is oriented to the development of an understanding of architecture as a discipline of critical thought and creative reflection through development of elements of observation and analysis. It consists of one module (Friday mornings) dedicated to Architectural and Urban Drawing/Sketching, and a partially associated workshop on Architectural Photography . Throughout the course, students will be encouraged to develop a critical sense of seeing, exploring and understanding buildings and places of architectural interest.

The Architectural and Urban Drawing/Sketching; it is conceived as an approach to architecture through drawing. In this sense, it is structured as a series of field trips to visit nearby relevant buildings and public spaces in order to reading and understanding them in depth through the concurrent and simultaneous acts of looking/observing and drawing (analytically and synthetically, rationally and intuitively). Free-hand perspective and 2D drawing will be the tested/explored through different techniques, supports and formats (media).

The Architectural Photography Workshop is an independent module taught by Josep M. de Llobet. It consists of three or four intense sessions dedicated to active learning of basic principles of architectural photography.
