The course aims to develop skills of architectural inquiry. Progressing from Year 1, students are asked to design more complex buildings concentrating, in particular, on themes of public and private, the site and situation. The class takes a study trip to a selected European city each year, and this forms the backdrop to much of the studio during the year. |
