수학을 사용하여 방을 디자인하고 스케치하세요

This class will explore a technical design skill called "isometric drawing" which is a great way to showcase some fun and creative room designs.

We'll begin by reviewing examples of vector illustrated room designs and discuss the basics of how to create these with pencil, ruler, and paper, as well as some brief discussions of CAD programs available for design and illustration (no additional software will be needed).

Students will then use simple geometry (angles) and measurement (with rulers in centimeters and inches) to create their own three dimensional grid framework.  We will review pattern-based isometric shapes such as buildings and furniture and practice drawing these components on a grid.

In the second class, we will perform calculations on our illustrations to check things like the perimeter of each section, and the area and volume of the room. If time permits, we can discuss a simple budget that could bring our own room design to life!

Students will present their unique room designs in the third class and, if time permits, they will be challenged to use their newly learned isometric drawing skills to create vector illustrations of such things as bunkbeds, lofts and libraries.
