Design Studio 5: Event Space Form - THA1840

Assessment 1: Portfolio (including examples)

In addition to periodic interim reviews, a formative portfolio assessment review will be included, which will normally take the form of formative feedback, prior to resubmission of the work as part of the summative assessment for the module.

Portfolio

Assessment 1: Portfolio

The module will be assessed as a printed portfolio and pin up presentation.
Must pass all elements of assessment.

The module is delivered across the first 12 teaching weeks of the Third Year of study.
This module asks you to apply your process and skills developed from design modules in Year 1 and 2, combined with a level of critical thinking and knowledge acquired from the lateral subjects of History &amp; Theory, Technology, and Personal Development.
You will develop a body of work in response to a studio theme. This will be defined and structured by Module Tutors to promote the integration of ideas and experimental practice in the production of the design proposals.
The emphasis in this module will be on:
exploring the notion of ‘event’ and how we make places and architecture which respond to this notion,
developing your design thinking as an architectural narrative; forming proposals which are poetic expressions of ideas.
Projects will not promote complex programmatic and organisational problems, but will rather allow in depth exploration of powerful philosophical and theoretical approaches.
You will be supported in managing your studio time and will be expected to apply technical skills and critical awareness drawn from this and adjacent modules, which will form the context for the module.
You will extend your understanding of the relationship between contemporary design theories and practice in order to facilitate a critical approach to the self-evaluation of design ideas and to provide an intellectual framework in support of your independent design development.
