8 credits towards the Certificate in Classical Architecture
The ICAA Workshop in Classical Architecture introduces classical architecture as a living language. The program begins with architectural case studies that demonstrate the use of classical forms and design strategies in new buildings and places. Students are then guided through a series of hands-on drawings by professional architects that demystify the forms and systems of classical architectural composition. The program provides instruction for students who are just beginning to explore the language, as well as for more advanced-level students and those who have attended previous ICAA Workshops.
Please note that students are required to bring drawing materials to participate in the Workshop.
Drawing Surface:
Note: The sketchbook must be able to lay completely flat when opened. It can be spiral-bound or stitch-bound (such as the Moleskin Art Series A4 size). Stitch-bound sketchbooks like the Moleskin Art series, that lay flat and allow both pages to be used for larger drawings are recommended.

Drawing Tools:
OPTIONAL: These materials are not required but may be useful if already owned.
