Overview

In this unit you will engage with notions of 'change' as a key consideration for spatial practice. Two fundamental modules will be explored: the development of design as a process of discovery, connecting introductory research concepts; and the assembly of materials in spatial practice.

In the first module you will focus on the temporal aspects of space, and the connection of design ideas, projects and experiences to change and transformation. In the second module services within inhabited environments will be introduced, and explored by you through focused observation and project work.
