Course Structure

term 1

In this course, learners use industry standard kitchen and bath design software programs to specify and document design concepts. Learners prepare technical drawings that define the scope of work, construction methods, and specifications for new and renovated kitchens and baths including plans, elevations, sections, details, and three dimensional drawings for project specifications and client presentations.

In this course, learners define the scope of a residential kitchen project, design a functional and code compliant kitchen space, and specify equipment, fixtures, and cabinetry for that space. During their project work, learners apply the elements and principles of design, design philosophies, and aesthetics in the design of a functional, residential kitchen space that meets industry standards and client needs. The design process, the decision making process, and access standards underpin all course activities.

The design process, the decision making process, and access standards underpin all course activities.

This course addresses construction methods for residential building systems and the building code for kitchen and bath projects. Focus falls on the integration and specification of proprietary elements and fixtures for cabinetry as well as the relationship between materials and surface finishes during construction and assembly. Learners delve into site evaluation and communication methods, documentation standards, and industry installation procedures.

In this course, learners practice estimating techniques and prepare itemized bills of quantities based upon kitchen and bath design specifications. In the kitchen and bath workplace, focus falls on the preparation of comprehensive lists of material quantities together with cost estimates for construction materials, design components, equipment, and fixtures, and estimated labour costs for construction, installation and alterations. In addition, learners estimate contingency sums and provisional sums.

term 2

This course examines the design and evaluation of new and existing building systems, including the study of heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) as well as plumbing and electrical requirements. Learners follow regulatory codes for plumbing, power, and lighting components. In addition, learners apply sequential coordination of the trades to address industry practices, specification standards, and installation methods.

In this course, learners create functional, spatial solutions for kitchens and baths to meet a variety of design criteria and project scopes. During the development of these design solutions from concept to documentation, learners necessarily address project elements like design access standards, sustainable applications, and regulatory codes.

term 3

This course provides learners with professional work experience during which they apply the practical skills, knowledge, and attitudes fostered by the kitchen and bath program. In consultation with a faculty advisor, each learner conducts a job search and secures a work experience placement. During the placement, learners record and document their experience and professional development as well as develop both personal and career goals.
