The course investigates the wide range of issues pertinent to the practice and study of architecture in contemporary culture and society (with a diversity of choice, interpretation and direction both in the project work and more academic research); whilst the course focus is extended to confront more sophisticated design programmes (whether informal, technical, professional or urban terms) that require a rigorous and self-critical approach; and for which the following objectives have been identified: to develop the student’s ability as an architectural designer through project-based experimentation; to present a constructive and rigorous intellectual evaluation and critique of their work within a broad cultural context (and in terms of the technical, economic and legal restraints of contemporary architectural practice); and to encourage an articulate explanation and representation of the quality and value of their design work.
