STUDENTS' APPROACHES ON THE GEOMETRIC TRANSFORMATIONS
Journal Title: Journal of Industrial Design and Engineering Graphics - Year 2017, Vol 12, Issue 1
Abstract
Architects represent volumes on a bidimensional surface, by using geometrical rules so that later they can build the reality in three dimensions. Thus, Descriptive Geometry taught to the future architects must provide basic knowledge regarding the creation of space, forms and methods by which they can be represented. With the new space viewing methods in computerized era, which allows incontestably complex connections in an entirely new manner makes us ask the question ”is geometrical thinking still necessary?“ This work analyses the ways in which descriptive geometry, by geometrical transformations allows the students architects the realization of volumes and architectural spaces, especially the role it plays in thedevelopment of spatial thinking.

GEOMETRY AND COMPLEXITY IN ARCHITECTURE
As Constantin Brancuși (1876-1956) said „Simplicity is complexity itself“, simplicity and regularity through the use of basic geometric forms has always played a central role in architectural design, during the 20th cent...
