Models are used as a means of communication between architects and their clients and as a method for testing and expressing architectural ideas and concepts. While drawings can only portray information on a two dimensional plane, models can express spatial proposals and concepts in 3D.


In this course, you will learn the core techniques for building architectural models using hand tools. Different types of models will be introduced. We will explore how models can be used to analyse a site.
