THE USE OF CUT-OUT PAPER AS METHODOLOGY OF EXPRESSION GRAPHICS ADVANCED, FOR THE UNDERSTANDING OF SPACE AND ARCHITECTURE

The object of this communication is to highlight the importance that have some graphic resources, employed in the area of architectural graphic expression, for the understanding of three-dimensional space, favouring at the same time knowledge of architecture and construction, through the development and reproduction of prototypes or models in three dimensions of low-cost such as the cut-out of paper which can be simple or sophisticated, and available to all students and resources.

To do this, and continuing with the philosophy of the European area of higher education, we seek to bring together new technologies in surveying and drawing, such as the 3d scanner and architectural Photogrammetry. Integrating the knowledge of various subjects in the area of graphic expression throughout this learning process, obtaining in this way that the student is autonomous and encourage the acquisition of knowledge, capacities and skills that will enable them to respond to the demands in the performance of their future profession. At the same time demonstrates the use of a common language as the image, the volume and graphic expression, facilitate its compression and mobility, establishing a training content common to other degrees related to the branch of knowledge, as well as the presence in our classrooms for international exchange students, who experience this process with success and involvement.
