A continuous dialogue between the idea for an interior space and the reality of its final built form is contained within construction documents, also known as working drawings and specifications. Students study the history of architectural documentation, the organization of construction drawings, schedules, and specifications, and the detailing of interior elements and construction methods by touring a local millwork shop. Each student completes a comprehensive set of construction documents. Student must be experienced with AutoCad.
