About the course

In this course we designed a textbook for the digital environment. The challenge was to work with complex content in a digital environment while creating an optimal and interesting learning experience, which will be better than a printed book.

 

All students had to choose a field of study and then to decide what is the best digital medium for this project.

About the project

As a former architecture student, I studied many courses of architecture history. I remember many hours of memorizing architectural plans of hundreds of buildings and texts and the difficulty of recognizing the differences between one architectural plan and another.

 

My goal in this project is to make the history of architecture an efficient and enjoyable experience. The website intended to anyone who wants to get to know the history of architecture, the characteristics of the different periods and the iconic structures of each period.
