Students are working through different projects for Architecture. We have met in small group to discuss how to use the engineer and architect's scale and practice measuring drawings together. Assignments:
1. Hand Draft the Design Office in the drawing below given the diagram posted on the google classroom. Center on type b paper with titleblock and border.
2. Measure the existing conditions of the classroom as a team. Make a sketch and use the floor tiles as 1 foot units of measurements to get the length, width and location of doors and windows as well as student desks.
3. Homestyler.com small group training
4. Individually model the classroom in homestyler using the measurements you recorded in your team.
5. Bubble and adjacency diagrams - floor plans of houses. Public vs. private space. Circulation. Designing a 2 bedroom 2 bath house/condo. Sketching.
6. Basic Revit Training
7. Model your 2 bedroom 2 bath house using Revit or homestyler. Create 18 x 24 poster of your design including floor plan, elevations, interior, exterior views and project brief description. Info. to be posted in google classroom.
8. Special projects that students will choose from when finished:
- 1. AIA HS Design Competition Project -Pedestrian Bridge or Nature Center (practice project for next year) 2. Campus Beautification Planters Project Construction 3.

Red Lines = Cut
Blue lines = engrave/fold
Export your design using Shianne
Cut out your pattern using the laser cutter – fold up – glue neatly – photograph
3.Design your own object to build out of paper on the lasercutter
Cut out your design, construct and photograph
4.Acrylic Key Chain
Design a key chain – max size = 3”
Hole = 3/16” diameter min
Import attach image into AutoCAD – trace using Spline drawing tool, etc.
