Department:

Study of Form and Ambience

Course Leader:

lect.dr.arh. Ioana Avram

Learning outcomes:

Starting from understanding how the human eye works, the main objective of the course is describing the formative elements to the development of vision, ‘thinking in space’ and the construction of the architectural perspective.
The study of perspective is approached through its two aspects:
• the perspective as a tool in design and as visual analysis of the object:
• the perspective as a method of illustrating within the architectural design.
The course does not aim to describe several methods of constructing perspective.

Content:

Lectures
1 Axonometry. Definition, classifications
2 The mechanism and the classification of perspective
3 Perspective on a vertical picture plane with two vanishing points
4 Perspective on a vertical picture plane with three vanishing points
5 The vanishing points and the measurement points
6 The line and the plane in perspective
7 Drawing of shadows in perspective on the vertical picture plane
8 Perspective with raised horizon line. Rendering of the depth
9 The distance point
10 Frontal perspective
11 Perspective division
12 Interior perspective with two vanishing points
13 Circle and sphere in perspective
14 The mirroring on the vertical picture plane. The perspective restitution
