ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STUDIO 1
Module Coordinator : Ar. Lim Wey Shan
Tutor : Ms. Raihana Zainuddin
Architectural Design I (ARC60208) is a course that introduces students to the field of architectural design. This preliminary design module attempts to exhibit and explain design in terms of tectonics through the expression of 'self' and body perception, construction, and materiality. The essential methodologies, principles, and approaches in design thinking and basic spatial design will be introduced through a series of studio-based exercises and tasks. Understanding anthropometrics and building intrapersonal space with creative exercises using the user's body movements and experiences are also included.
