ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STUDIO 4

In Studio 4, themed “engaging environment and community”, the studio explores design by harnessing environmental qualities and conditions for human and environment sustainability through a project with a specific community of users within a given context. Students are expected to explore the environmental poetics of the building enclosure that responds to the basic natural context and existing building context. The design work should contribute to and merge harmoniously with environment and the site, and provide the best of experiences for the community of users.The environmental elements and poetics of the context within a complex spatial typology creates a design narrative that aims to foster a sense of community.
