Master architectural graphic design and visual storytelling for striking building visualisation.
Overview:
Visual aesthetics aren’t just for galleries—they shape how we experience spaces every day. This course dives into architectural graphic design with a sharp focus on how buildings are communicated visually—from striking layouts to engaging wayfinding systems. Whether it's understanding line, shape, and colour theory, or exploring the subtle power of patterns and texture, you’ll develop a refined eye for the art behind the built environment.
But it doesn’t stop there. We journey into the world of web and UI design, storyboarding, branding, and even the quirks of visual design for voice assistants. Every module builds your understanding of how design tells stories in the built world—from architectural drawings to digital interfaces—while keeping your visual instincts razor-sharp and communication skills polished enough to frame.
