Aims and objectives:-
Students will complete the above project, chosen by the college, using the following
acquired skills:-

Assignment 1
Students will be able to survey a small site using running dimensions and triangulation making note of site details such as the position of trees, buildings, simple level changes, and services etc. They will be able to evaluate the data collected on site and produce a scale drawing at 1:50 to accurately portray the site’s characteristics. They will write a simple client brief and produce a sketch proposal based on that brief. Students will apply pattern analysis concepts which have been taught concurrently in the first term. The proposal will be drawn using pencil and then draughting pens, on architectural blanks using the title blocks to display appropriate information. Students will demonstrate an understanding of special concepts and design philosophy and demonstrate a reasonable knowledge of landscape graphical symbols.

3D Sketching Workshop.
Students will be taught to illustrate their work using both single and 2 point perspective style imaging as well as being introduced to architectural rendering techniquesIntroduction CAD Workshop

Research Project 1

In a time line format, students will discuss with the aid of photographs and diagrams the main political, social, technological and economic influences (to include the world of art, music and architecture) that affected the creation of the modern landscape. They will discuss the philosophy and expression and patterns behind the most famous landscapes and describe how history had influenced their evolution.
