Building Design

Building Design is the process of creating functional, aesthetic, and sustainable architectural plans for structures. Coursera's Building Design catalogue teaches you about the principles and techniques of designing buildings, from conceptual drawing to the creation of full-scale architectural plans. You'll learn about the role of architecture in society, the science of structuring and space planning, as well as the art of creating aesthetically pleasing and sustainable designs. This knowledge prepares you for careers in architecture, interior design, urban planning, and other related fields. You'll also explore the application of technology in design, the use of sustainable materials, and the importance of complying with building regulations and standards.
