Within the context of this course the project of a house with a couple spaces will be worked by starting from the drawings of geometric forms and objects. The house project will be drawn in terms of application project with furnishing of wet spaces and sizes as well. Practices over drawings of objects, house plan and sections of them will be made by students.
