19	Objective of the Course:	This course aims to teach making architectural models for different stages of an architectural design. While the process of modeling in architecture is studied, different communication purposes of models are sought in different scales, materials, colors and textures. Students are expected to build models in groups and exhibit their work at the end of the semester.
