Overview
Architecture design studio 3 further refines the process of investigation, critical observation, and experiment integral to architectural practice. The unit continues the emphasis on perceptive synthesis of the range of complex issues inherent in the production of architecture: material, structure, program, site, history and representation will be investigated in their relationship to the production of architectural form.
Design studio 3 continues to emphasise the development of architectural designs through the three-dimensional and material testing of ideas. You will continue the development of two and three-dimensional modes of representation. Studies will focus on developing an increasingly sophisticated understanding of design as a visual language and process of cultural production with a focus on social and environmental sustainability.
