Investigate an architect

Draw buildings using simple perspective

Tonally shade architecture

Make an architectural 3D model

Present a group design proposal

In this unit, pupils investigate an architect and learn to draw buildings in an architectural style. They may work in groups to respond to an architectural design challenge and design and make a solution in two and three dimensions, before making a group presentation.

When working in a group, how can you show you are listening to others?

Put these steps in the right order when working in a group to design a building:

{{}} are things you might share during a group project.
