Purpose of class
The students are expected to learn the situation of the contemporary urban context through research and to acquire the professional knowledge and techniques necessary to make a convincing proposal to improve the architectural and urban conditions.
Course description
The course is an architectural design studio, in which students are to propose a building design in urban context.
After a thorough research on the several aspects of built environment in the scale of city planning (e.g. 1: 2,500), students are to propose suitable programs for the building and to develop the urban and architectural design in the scale of regional planning (e.g. 1:500), and/or the scale of architectural design (e.g. 1:200). The class is for International Course Students as well as Foreign Students.
