Introduction to Architecture (Beginner):
"Tiny House" workshop

Dates: 17-19 February 2025

Time: 9:30 -12:30

Cost:  £150 (including materials and refreshments)

Age: Suitable for ages 11+

 

The 'Tiny House' movement is taking the world by storm. A 'Tiny House' is usually no more than 35 sq.m. and is constructed with environmentally conscious and renewable materials. These small “utopian” dwellings can help people escape debt and reduce their carbon footprint. Tiny houses also offer an attractive alternative to the affordable housing crisis.

During this course, students will design and produce scale drawings, including plans and elevations for their own Tiny House. They will also build a scale model.

The cost of the course includes all materials and course notes and will follow this format:

Day 1: Mood board and design
Day 2: Draw plans & elevations to scale
Day 3: Build a model

Creative subjects such as art and design require a lot of space and resources to produce high-quality work. However, not all GCSE and A-level students have access to these facilities at home. That's why we offer a flexible and affordable service for students who need extra support or space to complete their projects. Whether you need a tutor to guide you through the creative process, give you feedback and tips to improve your work, or help you with ideas and layouts, we have you covered. Or if you just need a studio to work in, without any interference, we can provide that too.
