In this final lower-division design studio students will be able to synthesize, organize and prepare clear and articulate architectural proposals that present the skills learned in the previous three semesters. Additionally, students will conclude this sequence by applying new concepts such as the integration of sustainable and mechanical systems, architectural detailing, and integrating digital design software into their final presentations.

Student Learning Outcomes of the Course:

1. Apply professional communication methods including writing, speaking and creating clear and accurate presentation graphics and architectural orthographic drawings.

2. Apply iterative design processes to develop projects.
