__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION LESSON 1 In the first lesson the students get to know the architecture of their immediate and broader environment and become acquainted with contemporary and modern architecture, and with town planning. The students assemble a modern building from Logifaces blocks using all pieces in the set.  LESSON 2 The students use CAD (computer aided design) to design a unique building that matches their immediate environment. Their building should take into account aspects of contemporary culture and sustainable development. They imagine the shapes, sizes, and, for example, wall curvature for their building. They take into account the principles of environmental protection and postmodern architecture.
