A42T4B Designstudion för Arkitekturens Interdisciplinaritet 4:4 12,0 hp

The Architectures of Interdisciplinarity Design Studio seeks a holistic synthesis of technological investigation and design, using projective and case-based learning to research the socio-technological implications of design strategies. Emphasis is placed on developing methodologies for testing projected proposals and for evaluating the relative value of quantitative and qualitative modelling. The fourth semester of the studio will integrate all studio concepts into the final design proposal, with opportunities for individual specialization. The final studio outcome will be completed design proposals coupled with documentation of research, including specific findings within the development as well as general research conclusions.

Students who have completed this course should be able to

•  Develop a holistic, synthetic understanding of new concepts in architectural technology

• Demonstrate the use of digital modelling software specified in the course programme literature for analysing and developing architectural design and for making informed design choices

•  Develop a critical understanding of the significance of such digital modelling software in relation to traditional modes of design and explain and evaluate this through written, aural and visual presentations

•  Demonstrate an ability to apply an interdisciplinary work method, including an exchange of data, knowledge and skills

• Demonstrate the ability to communicate design concepts clearly in architectural renderings, models, aural and visual presentations

Bachelor’s Degree, or an equivalent level, within the field of Architecture.

Will be announced at the beginning of the course.

• Vid grupparbete har alla i gruppen ansvar för gruppens arbete.
• Vid examination ska varje student ärligt redovisa hjälp som erhållits och källor som använts.
• Vid muntlig examination ska varje student kunna redogöra för hela uppgiften och hela lösningen.
