Design Studio 3: Place and Architecture - TIA1840

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 production of a body of work, in the form of physical drawings and models that demonstrate the manipulation and expression of architectural space and form in response to a specific context equivalent in scope to 7,500 words.

The module is delivered across the first 12 teaching weeks of the Second Year of study.
This module requires you to produce works of increasing sophistication having successfully completed Design Studio 1 and Design Studio 2 (or equivalent) and will enable you to explore the relationship between theory and practical design activity.
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.
The content of the module will comprise a number of design projects which will enable you to develop your skills at integrating architectural design with material and environmental technologies in an holistic design solution.
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.

TIA1840 - Design Studio 3: Place and Architecture

Design Studio 3: Place and Architecture

be able to produce moderately complex architectural designs that are responsive to place and user requirements.

be able to demonstrate the critical and analytical techniques to evaluate and judge architectural precedent and use it to inform the formation of elementary design briefs.

be able to use a variety of media techniques and technologies in the exploration and communication of ideas.

be able to critically explore the structural, material and environmental properties of a proposed design and demonstrate an ability to synthesise information to produce resolved and creative design solutions.

be able to work independently and as part of a team.

be able to understand the characteristics of specific places and the concerns and aspirations of the users by using techniques of physical survey and analysis to interpret design issues.
