Course Description:

Learning Objectives:

  • Attendees will identify examples of architecture that employ the orders and elements, and analyze in a question/answer/discussion segment of the class.
  • Attendees will address how individual classical design elements, large compositions that employ classical design, and the proportions of classical architecture that are capable of conveying meaning, improving health, reducing stress, and generally contributing to overall well being.
