Transfers ToCSUDescriptionUsing sustainable Design strategies,standards and geospatial tools (CADD/ BIM/GIS), the student will learn how to participate in the interior design profession as a "viewer and a doer"for the entire life cycle of a building and focusing on interior residential planning. Basic concepts will be covered in class to understand the fundamentals variables that determine interior spaces: lights, air, circulation, texture, pattern, geometry, experience, styles, natural resources, energy efficiency,form, materials, thermal/moisture protection and others. A study is made using a "small house project" layout, livability, functionality, size, orientation, cost, furnishing, equipment, and ornamentation and future inhabitants. The "small house project" is put in context through a brief history of American shelters � their construction types and styles. At this point the student is ready for developing, retrofitting, adding and remodeling the "small house project" including basic interior construction details and finishes. Residential construction problems are explored with an emphasis placed in functional design. ARCHITECTURE
