How is ADT different than architecture and Interior Design?
Counselors should also be aware of how Architectural Drafting Technology supports yet is different from both the Architecture program and Interior Design programs such as that at American River College. Our program is focused on “build-out” of interior space with an infusion of the software that facilitates this. Students will learn how the external portions (foundation and walls) of a building are built but only to the extent that it helps them plan what goes into using the internal space. Our Architectural Design Technology students concern themselves with things like the physical space design within the exterior walls and sound resilience rather than color, fabrics or decorations which are in the domain of the Interior Designer.
