Description

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.

Learning in this unit builds on prior investigations into the built environment. Pupils will learn how buildings are designed and how their environment is shaped by artists. The unit links to vocational practice.
