The study of spatial relationships and proportions between sectors, environments and the exterior space of a residence. The study of the dimensioning of residential space, sectors and environments, through the critical and concrete use of space and furniture through the analysis of real examples visited, survey and recognition of the living spaces themselves and encouraging each student to search for these notions. The relationships between the architectural object and the site and immediate surroundings, observing typology, proportion, scale and physical characteristics, solar orientation, topography, existence of watercourses, vegetation, neighboring buildings, among others. Notions of design methodology and timeline for evolution. Initial notions of structure.
