Description

This course will involve candidates in a critical study of theoretical and practical aspects of environments design. It is aimed at developing the candidate's capacity to discern current environments design issues and to apply these understandings in sophisticated and comprehensive solutions to a range of design projects. Specific attention will be paid to the application of experimental materials and structures as well as innovative applications of traditional materials and structures; application of critical analysis to the design of modes of interaction between environmental systems both built and natural; application of CAD and other computer programs as effective tools in the research, design and development of environments projects.
