DESIGNING ARCHITECTURE ● GABRIEL YEGANYAN

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

Understanding architecture is a powerful tool for developing credible environments and compelling stories. During this classe we will learn how to extract and analyze the fundamental building blocks of complex architectural environments.
We will learn to simplify complex designs to help us better understand form, proportion and the gestural arrangement of key elements.
