Content

This unit assumes a level of architectural design knowledge and presentation skill gained in undergraduate design studies.  The design projects undertaken will be based in selected urban situations and will involve the development of a building, or group of buildings with a degree of programmatic complexity.  The building types may involve public and/or commercial programs, and their relationship to the public and urban infrastructures will be integral to the design studies undertaken.  Historic and cultural precedents will be analysed and integrated into the design projects.  Portfolio and design journals will form essential components of the total submission for this unit.

Assessment

Interim presentation 40%, final submission and presentation 60%
