ARCH 1602 - Writing Reading Thinking Architecture

Introduces undergraduate architecture students to the value and importance of writing in the discipline. The primary theme of the course is the integral relationship between three types of writing especially important to a career in architecture: description, analysis, and criticism. The course also explores the practice of free-writing as a type of design process. It focuses on written communication, but also addresses oral communication, which is another foundational practice in our discipline, and considers how writing and speaking are alike and unlike each other. Additionally, graphic communication is integrated as a way to develop a discipline-specific understanding of communication more broadly.
