Don your hard hats and get hands-on creativity flowing as you learn the complexities of designing structures from buildings to bridges. Investigate how ancient architectural breakthroughs led to the fundamental design elements of today. From walls and arches to post-and-lintel building techniques, use hands-on manipulatives to inspect and duplicate design elements from around the globe. Replicate some of history’s most famous designs (from castles to the Taj Mahal, Eiffel Tower, Parthenon), then uncover how different societies made the stylistic, artful, and structural aspects of construction and architecture. With new buildings today reaching higher into the sky, architects and engineers are constantly working through questions of structure and style. Develop an understanding of the real-world applications of architecture and gain an appreciation for everyday structures!
