This course is designed to meet the needs of both undergraduate and postgraduate students who may have limited experience in the field of environment/spatial design, but wish to test their interests in this area. The course introduces the basic vocabularies, grammar and constructions of environment/spatial design. Through investigating fundamental design language and its application in the practice, and a series of studio projects, students will gain essential knowledge and develop a capacity to examine the space, form and structures of built environments. Students will develop their skills in instrument-aided drawing, CAD, freehand drawing and model making as effective means to communicate design intention.
