About this course

This course will teach you how to produce a portfolio of work that is needed when applying for undergraduate courses in architecture, interior architecture, and spatial and urban design. Highlights include life drawing, visits to London museums and exhibition and how to present your portfolio.

This course is appropriate for school and college-level students and is structured for 16 to 18-year-olds. It will also support those preparing their AS or A level portfolios who have a specific interest in architectural, interior and three-dimensional design. This course does not require prior knowledge of architecture or design but basic skills in drawing and observation would be useful.
