Exploration of the implications of theoretical, historical, technological and environmental factors influencing design thinking, practices, outcomes and modes of representation. An emphasis on the integration of critical research, visualisation, modelling and the development of appropriate design strategies. Detailed design of medium-scale buildings, and medium to large-scale architectural spaces, to an intermediate level of integration. Consideration and incorporation of selected components, construction assemblies and integrated environmental systems of increasing complexity. Predominantly collaborative group-based work.
