Preparing a constructional sectional and elevational study related to the building design.

Artefacts 2

Developing, refining and completing an architectural building design developed from the origination / gestative stage.

Artefacts 1

The design process will focus on an architectural exploration within an urban context. The culmination of the design project will require the student to consider their design as an assemblage of components with a focus on Technology, Materials and Sustainability. Staff will deliver illustrated lectures on Design and Structural Detailing throughout the Semester.
Individual guidance sessions will be arranged to monitor the progress of the student&#39;s personal development programme (PDP).

Architectural Design 2 - Resolution Stage 2

Have the ability to prepare and present a building design project of small scale, some complexity, and of a type in a particular context, using a range of media, and in response to a brief.

Have the basic ability to develop a conceptual and critical approach to architectural design that integrates and satisfies the aesthetic aspects of a building and the technical requirements of its construction & the needs and aspirations of the user.

Be able to communicate utilising standard drawings conventions the technical resolution of a building project.

Have an understanding of strategies for building construction, and ability to integrate knowledge of structural principles and construction techniques.

Have an understanding of the investigation, appraisal and selection of alternative structural, constructional and material systems relevant to architectural design.

Be able to synthesise the creative application of art, cultural, environmental or other work to studio architectural projects, in terms of their conceptualisation and representation.
