Course Description

A research and invention, oriented seminar exploring the consequences of contemporary and future sustainability strategies on formal and tectonic architectural conditions. Ecological and cultural practices as a foundation for design are considered. The course proceeds from a theoretical research on space, form and sustainable technology and analysis how designers use space, form, technology to exhibit cultural artefacts and ideas. Student in the process of devising and learning theories, related to the subject of study, and the conclusion from the field study which is carried out in an urban district or a village core will test their knowledge from the course.
