Architectural Design 1 is a SECOND year course (recommended for grades 10-12) that provides classroom learning experiences that is found in drafting technology. Learning activities include design, spatial visualization techniques, sketching and use of instruments, shape and size description, multi-view projection, auxiliaries, rotation, pictorial drawings, and include AutoCAD 2021.

Prerequisite: Foundations of Architectural Design (TAF1000)

architectural design 2

ACCN#: TAA300

*See Foundations of Architectural Design video for more information.

Architectural Design 2 is the third course in the Architectural Design program of study designed to provide students with the opportunity to apply skills learned in previous courses and continue to strengthen their individual design process and aesthetics across a series of real-world applications. Upon completion of the course, a proficient student will have foundational knowledge on various types of architecture, including sustainable architecture and architectural standards for various building types, as well as design constraints such as topography, site analysis, client wishes. A proficient student will demonstrate continued practice and refinement of technical drawing skills (freehand, manual, and CAD)and modeling techniques through a series of design projects.

Prerequisite: Architectural Design 1 (TAA2000)

program of study: Engineering technology

The Engineering program is designed for students interested in the various disciplines of engineering and engineering technology. Learning experiences allow for students to develop critical thinking skills and an understanding of engineering concepts and then apply these in conjunction with a multi-step engineering design process to solve real-world problems.
