A little bit about the programme...
UNIT INCUBATOR: OBSERVE&TRANSLATE:
The course pursues architectural investigation through multiple processes; Multiplicity, Hybridity
Experimentation and Discovery. These processes aim to yield an integrated discipline and practice of architecture as, simultaneously, radical and appropriate - well conceptualised, considered and crafted.
“You look at where you're going and where you are and it never makes sense, but then you look back at where you've been and a pattern seems to emerge. And if you project forward from that pattern, then sometimes you can come up with something. “
RM Pirsig on Hybridity. Experimentation. Progress .
The programme structure comprises of three major
integrated streams where individual module content has been assembled collectively
to form strong overlapping languages and processes of architecture toward a
holistic discipline of the practice of architecture.
DESIGN + THEORY
Theory, Thinking, Positioning and Synthesis in the form of projects, lectures and seminars.
Theory, Thinking, Positioning and Synthesis in the form of projects, lectures and seminars.
REPRESENTATION + REALISATION
Implementation, Tests, Resolution and representation
in the form of architectural projects.
PRAGMATICS
Ingredients, Fundamentals and Practicalities
in the form of essays, assignments and journals.
Year 2 = OBSERVE (looking at realities to inspire emergent approaches)
Year 3 = TRANSLATE (theoretical positioning, precedent and application of fluid processes)
