Introduction to Design & Architecture - Term 2 (Sat 23 Mar - 4 May)

Introducing Children to Architecture Basics and Design Principles through hands-on make and build activities. The 6 weeks program will cover fundamentals of design and architecture elements relating to form, function, materials and architectural representations explored through sketching and model making.

Weekly exploration of various mini-projects

The 2-hour weekly classes help to reinforce creative concepts and skills learnt and to build awareness of how good designs enhance our lives in our built environment. Students will have a great time immersed in their creative making, testing and experimenting with new ideas in our weekly themed classes.

In Term 2, students will be introduced to the various Typologies of Home and given an overview of the types of dwellings all around the world. Students will learn the design of different architectural dwellings are essentially in response to the local climate, physical site conditions, availability of local materials, the local authority requirements and home owners’ living needs and preferences.

Students will get imaginative and think out-of-the-box on other home alternatives; to design a tree house, a moving home, a house on waters, high-rise living to designing an epic Home on Mars. It will be a fun term of creative yet purposeful exploration.

DesignTinkers camps are specially curated and led by instructors who are educators, architects and designers with the passion and experience of working with young children to nurture their creative interests. Camps are held in our spacious and conducive classroom for kids to create and explore freely under guidance.
