About the course

The course examines how the existing context can be seen as a resource that includes community structures, social sustainability, locally available materials, local tectonics, local expertise and programmatic elements. These elements will be developed and supplemented where necessary to produce strategies for possible interventions to both the urban scale and the building scale.

The course is divided into two modules:

  1. Architectural Strategies and Contextual Resources (3 credits)
  2. Strategies for Construction Methods and Material Resources (2 credits)
