Basic Design and Drawing I course, the first design studio in the Basic Studies Foundation, is an introduction to architectural design, basic design theory and methodologies relating to spatial abstractions and forms.

As a continuation to the first-year courses, the role of design communications is reiterated in drawing exercises focusing on form, color theory, texture, and spatial determinants, historical precedence, sketching, orthographic projection and modeling. Prerequisite: "C" or better in ARCH 1342 or INTD 1342, credit or concurrent enrollment in ARCH 2303. Sophomore standing in the program.
