Learn from Successful Candidates in Architectural Design

TAC Corporation, based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, is excited to announce a free online seminar titled "Learning from Successful Candidates of the Architectural Design Examination for the Year 7 of Reiwa." This engaging event will take place on January 21, 2026, at 19:30 Japan time.

The seminar is specifically designed for individuals who have taken or plan to take the first-class architectural design examination. Participants will have the opportunity to delve into the sketches and drawings of successful TAC students who passed the recent examination. The session will focus on how these candidates organized their conditions and iterated their designs, highlighting the critical points that can make a difference in the results.

Design and drafting exams are unique in that they do not have a single correct answer. However, there are fundamental principles and key aspects that must not be overlooked. For those struggling with sketching, adopting the basic techniques and mimicking the thought processes of successful candidates could be a valuable starting point.
