iRubric: ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN ASSESSMENT RUBRIC

Does not attempt or is unable to complete design solutions.

Limited understanding of experiental quality of architectural form and space resulting in largely unsuccessful architectural solutions. Significant problems with scale, materiality, sequence, circulation, enclosure or visual perception.

Basic functional understanding of experiental qualtity of architectural form and space resulting in fundamentally sound architectural solutions. Moderate problems with scale, materiality, sequence, circulation, enclosure and or visual perception.

Clear understanding of experiental qualtity of architectural form and space resulting in successful architectural solutions. Minor problems with scale, materiality, sequence, circulation, enclosure and or visual perception.

Advanced understanding of experiental qualtity of architectural form and space resulting in exemplary architectural solutions. Effective use of scale, materiality, sequence, circulation, enclosure and visual perception.

Does not attempt, or is unable to complete design solutions.

Significant problems with presentation materials and/or techniques resulting in unsuccessful level of design communication. Major errors, omissions, consistency or quality problems in drawings, process and models. Poor verbal communication inhibiting discussion beyond rudimentary level.

Basic competence in presentation materials and techniques resulting in an acceptable level of design communication of general completeness. Presentation materials showing basic elements of design organized and comprehensible. No major errors, omissions, consistency or quality problems in drawings, process or models. Verbal communication understandable resulting in basic discussion of design solution.

Advanced achievement in presentation materials resulting in successful design communication of systematic consistency. Presentation materials comprehensive, detailed and well organized with minimal minor errors and requiring no further explanation. Verbal communication well planned and executed and effective resulting in further discussion of design solution.

Exemplary presentation in materials and verbal presentation resulting in highly effective design communication of clarity, detail and precision. Presentation materials at portfolio quality suitable for transfer. No errors or omissions. Verbal communication highly effective resulting in advanced discussion of design solution.
