Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives: The objective of this course is to enhance students' perception of the transition from plan to perspective and to enable them to quickly and effectively visualize the appearance of a plan in an elevated view and understand the three-dimensional forms of objects. Throughout the course, students will learn how to quickly visualize designs using visual and drawing-based techniques, in addition to 3D software. They will also learn about topics such as dimensional differences, texture, and form creation, placement, and interaction between different elements, through the use of fast painting techniques. By the end of the course, students will gain an understanding of the relationships between elements in different positions.
Course Content: This course focuses on the development of skills required to effectively communicate design projects through perspective and painting techniques in the disciplines of architecture and interior design.

Learning Outcomes
