In our increasingly visual world we often need to present ideas in realistic, expressive, and engaging ways. This introductory course presents the basics of digital drawing and rendering through the lens of architecture, but is intended for students of all disciplines interested in visual communication. This project-based course focuses on the essentials of AutoCAD, SketchUp, and Revit supplemented with V-Ray and Photoshop for rendering. Attribute/Distribution: AL, HU
Fundamental design studio for architecture majors. Composition, spatial concepts; precedent; materials and detail; light and color in architecture. Instruction in basic communication techniques. Prerequisites: ART 004 or ARCH 034 Can be taken Concurrently: ART 004, ARCH 034 Attribute/Distribution: AL, HU
Intensive study of a topic of special interest not covered in other courses. Repeat Status: Course may be repeated. Attribute/Distribution: AL, HU, W
This course concentrates on visualization and fabrication in architecture. Students are introduced to advanced architectural diagramming and model-making as well as conventional and digital representation skills. This course investigates architectural graphics as an active means of communication and as a generative element in organizing architectural space. Precedents and examples are extensively researched. All exercises are designed to enhance students' ability to imagine and visualize complex architectural forms and spaces. Various architectural materials are employed and tested. Attribute/Distribution: AL, HU
Survey of architectural interiors and décor examining public and domestic spaces and their contents in terms of period and style. Exploration of major art and design movements through the lens of interior spaces and objects within the context of culture and society. Attribute/Distribution: CC, HE, HU
Studio format, introductory course in architectural design which introduces students to new ways of thinking about architecture and the perception of space, three-dimensional composition, drawing, and model-making. Prerequisites: ARCH 043 Attribute/Distribution: HU
The two-course sequence (ARCH 157 & ARCH 158) introduces the use of building materials, components and systems (slabs, walls, trusses, facade systems, etc.) while providing students with the knowledge to design and construct comfortable, technically sound and aesthetically pleasing buildings. Recommended to be taken concurrently with ARCH 143. Attribute/Distribution: CC, HU, Q

This studio course is part of the Lehigh in Italy summer program and will utilize several different architectural drawing techniques to study aspects of architecture from analysis of a piazza to architecture in detail. It will employ pencil sketching, charcoal drawing, and watercolor. These drawings will act as a way of seeing the Italian urban landscape and supplement the study and analysis of the Italian architects' contemporary work. Fulfills an art studio elective requirement. Attribute/Distribution: AL, HU
