This course merges engineering, design, and innovative thinking to shape the future of our homes and communities. Students will research, explore, and design multigenerational living environments, combining graphic design with engineering to create a compelling billboard for an intergenerational estate. By integrating innovative branding with engineered structures, they will develop a billboard that withstands forces acting on it, while creating graphics to promote the estate.
Students will then engage in an in-depth study of architectural design and computer modelling to create a multigenerational residence, addressing the needs of various stakeholders. Virtual Reality will be used to walk through designs, presenting the features of their solutions.
This subject provides a foundation for further studies of Design or Engineering in Years 11 and 12. The skills developed may also have application to other (Humanities/Science/Arts/Technology) subjects. For pathways beyond school, please refer to the senior course descriptions.
