One of the classes in the first semester of the masters program is Visual Communications I, a class that focuses on using alternate methods to create images.
​
Each student worked with a variety of well-known floor plans and sections and were first tasked with replicating these drawings in rhino and studying the latent geometry within.
​
Once each student had perfected their drawing, they were to choose two other plans and sections from other students in the class. It was then our responsibility to combine all three plans into one drawings, and all three sections into another.
​
Once this was completed, a 3D model was abstracted from either the combined plan or section drawing, and the final task was to create a 3D model in an oblique form. It was required that model be made out of three different methods as well. Paper, plastic, and liquid were required methods in the final oblique model.
​
See above for how one plan and sections progressed throughout the semester into different drawings and models.
