Learning Outcomes
On completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- The ability to develop and act upon a productive conceptual framework both individually and in teams for an architectural project or proposition, based on a critical analysis of relevant issues.
- The ability to develop an architectural spatial and material language that is carefully considered at an experiential level and that is in clear dialogue with conceptual and contextual concerns.
- The ability to investigate, appraise and develop clear strategies for technological and environmental decisions in an architectural design project.
- A critical understanding of the effects of, and the development of skills in using, differing forms of representation (e.g. verbal, drawing, modelling, photography, film, computer and workshop techniques), to explain a design project.
