Approach to design which includes several related disciplines, with the aim to design and build according to the Near Zero Energy Building principles. The interplay between all aspects of building design, building use and outdoor climate.
The set of guidelines that determine the minimum standards for buildings and other constructions in order to protect public health and safety.
The computer-aided design (CAD) software for creating, modifying, analysing or optimising a design.
The computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) is the use of computer technology for design and design documentation. CAD software replaces manual drafting with an automated process.

The drawings detailing the design of products, tools, and engineering systems.
Techniques used for creating detailed drawings of designs by using specialised pencils, rulers, templates and scales.
Mathematics is the study of topics such as quantity, structure, space, and change. It involves the identification of patterns and formulating new conjectures based on them. Mathematicians strive to prove the truth or falsity of these conjectures. There are many fields of mathematics, some of which are widely used for practical applications.
Drawing software and the various symbols, perspectives, units of measurement, notation systems, visual styles and page layouts used in technical drawings.
The division of land into zones where various uses and activities are allowed, such as residential, agricultural, and industrial activities. These zones are regulated by legislative procedures and local authorities.

Ensure that the drawings of the architectural project reflect the reality by visiting the construction sites and implementing adjustments.
Create architectural sketches for the design and detail specifications of interiors and exteriors to scale.
Providing something with a component or feature not fitted during manufacture or adding something that it did not have when first constructed. used in relation to the installation of new building systems, such as heating systems, but it might also refer to the fabric of a building, for example, retrofitting insulation or double glazing. Design solutions to retrofit existing residential and commercial building space in order to upgrade their performance, for example by reducing energy and water usage. Evaluate the range of retrofit technologies available and select the more suitable ones based on the characteristics of the building.
