See / Perceive Course: Printed Matter with Caroline Rabourdin This course considers the form of the book as a site for architectural exploration. You will learn about the role of the book in the recording and dissemination of architectural ideas with the treasures of the AA Archive, and also see how artists’ book production from the 60s might inform architectural production. You will learn bookbinding techniques and learn about book production. Ultimately, the aim of the course is to produce your own book or series of books, experimenting with paperspace and its interaction with the reader. Unnamed Placemark Course: Cellar Door with Inigo Minns This course explores the fundamental qualities of drawing and image making. Through a series of tests using different media, students spend 8 weeks exploring how we make images and how we can make them better. Starting with architectural drawing formats as well as works from graphic design and fine art, students will develop a series of strategies for bringing more visual intent, beauty and power to their work. Analysing composition, colour, projection, media, and image making techniques, the aim of this course is to develop a unique drawing language suitable for every student project.
