GENERAL OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE
The first semester marks the beginning of architectural training and introduces students to architecture, its language, representation methods, and techniques.
Learning about architecture also involves training the eye, observation, and analysis of architectural projects in terms of form and composition.
This learning takes place in three phases:
- 
Discover: The focus is on geometry, flat shapes, volumes, artistic expression, their properties and characteristics, and various representation techniques: technical drawing, sketching, model-making, etc. 
- 
Compose: This phase involves manipulation of forms and volumes to learn and master the vocabulary of composition, organization, and transformation of forms and volumes. 
- 
Decompose: Through geometric analysis of architectural projects, students learn to read a concrete project formally. This final phase synthesizes all prior knowledge and enables a smooth transition to Semester 2.
