In this course, students advance the AutoCad,skills developed in AutoCad I to produce a,comprehensive set of CAD documents to coincide,with their studio project. This course develops,2D and 3D drafting skills to provide an,introduction to DIN 311. Custom built-ins,,millwork details, lighting design plans, as well,as finish schedules and specifications, complete,the set of drawings. Building systems (mechanical,,electrical, structural, etc.) are explored to,provide an understanding of building components in,residential and commercial structures and how,humans interact with their environments. The,documents developed will display inclusive and,universal design including ramps, access to,elevators etc.

Prerequisites: DIN 311

This comprehensive design studio incorporates the,specialized attributes of lighting while creating,design solutions for a large-scale project.,Students apply AutoCad technology and knowledge of,building codes, universal and inclusive design,principles in presenting design solutions.

Credits: 3

Prerequisites: DIN 232, DIN 270

The focus of this course is a comprehensive studio,design problem that involves a large-scale,commercial space. Projects require the application,of concepts of programming space analysis, ,inclusive design, planning and creative problem,solving. A set of plans, working sketches and,models, presentation materials and research, as,well as verbal presentations may be required.,Design issues to be resolved challenge students to,develop innovative solutions for the built,environment, while providing for the health,,safety and welfare of the public.
