Learning Objectives - Last names A-D
The design (‘Disegno’) is not only a language to communicate ideas, but it is a study tool, analysis, which educates the understanding of reality, and in this sense becomes an integral part of the cognitive process of space. In particular for the architect it is essential to know how to graph the project idea and thus "materialize". Indeed, it is through design that the designer to check the shape of the object that proposes to realize, but to do so must be provided with appropriate methodologies and techniques. It is the descriptive geometry that develops the ability to think in three-dimensional space and allows, thanks to the methods of representation, to draw on a flat surface shapes of objects that surround us.
The course is set so as to clarify the students which are the methods for representing the three-dimensional reality on the drawing sheet, that is, to obtain the two-dimensional representation of the space that surrounds us. The classes are organized starting from the most commonly used method, that of Orthogonal projections, which serve to illustrate the object in the right relationship and such that it is still measurable. Following are treated the Central Projection and in particular the Perspective, useful for an overview of project ideas, as well as the Axonometry and Parallel Perspective. In addition the course also aims to understand how these methods are, among them, closely related and, after all, indispensable to the architect.

Through the topics of the seminar, proposed during the course, you can experiment the applications of geometry to the field of scientific research.
These are, for example, the study of the painted architecture, the anamorphosis two or three dimensional, the gnomonic instruments such as sundials, armillary spheres and astrolabes.
3. Mode of Teaching
The course consists of lessons and exercises on the topics covered.
Lessons are conducted by the teacher at the blackboard through drawings made with colored chalk.
Ex-tempore verification after each topic.
By Ppoint will learn the applications of geometry to scientific research.
The final drawings (format A2) will treat an architectural theme of particular interest (to be agreed with the teacher).
4. Review Mode
The exam is held by an individual written exam, an oral exam and evaluation of the graphics tablets (format A2) presented.
