Students Excel in 3D-architecture

By Daniel Gay-Betton '15

3-D architecture students are really displaying their creativity by creating model homes.

Taught by Mr. Moorhouse, the goal of this semester-long course is to learn the principles of architecture by designing a dream house. The class has had such success that four seniors who have taken the class will move on to study architecture (Josef Saeme, Drake Peterson, Julio Iglesias and Jonathan Dag). Peterson and Saeme even have scholarschips. 

“The class was fun because I enjoyed having no boundaries while creating and designing my house,” says JD Madril ‘15. “I learned how to use tools and explore my mind to invent my dream house.”

Moorhouse also asks that his students incorporate environmentally-friendly features into their models.

“We begin with PowerPoints on modern and contemporary architects to inspire the students” Moorhouse says. “I encouraged them to think fantasy and be wildly creative.”
