This course will utilize the three fundamental elements of the Vitruvian design process to analyze productions: in this course, the term productions refers to a myriad of works, including but not limited to, structures, machines, substances created through chemistry, art works and philosophies, planned urban environments, electronic devices, and items created for sale.

The course will begin with an examination of the primary tenet of Vitruvius, the 1st Century BC Roman author. Although referred to as an architect, it must be remembered that the Latin term of that time had a much broader meaning than the term architect holds today: in Rome at that time, the term architect included – architecture, construction engineering and management; civil, material, mechanical, and chemical engineering, and urban planning. Thus, in this course, the term architect will mean one who designs. The primary principle of Vitruvius, expressed in his De architectura, is the Vitruvian Triad: firmitas, utilitas, and venustas, which in this course will be termed structure, function, and aesthetic. The Vitruvian Triad concept will be utilized in analyses of productions from throughout history to reveal that “good” designs adhere to this Vitruvian principle of design.
