11231 Architectural Design: Field

6cp
Requisite(s): 11211 Architectural Design: Forming AND 11215 Architectural Design: Making
Undergraduate

This subject considers architecture as an intervention within the broader field of an urban or other landscape. Beyond the design of an object, the subject is concerned with relationships between buildings, and between buildings and the infrastructure and landscapes in which they are situated. At the same time, the subject asks students to account for the many competing interests in the design of any public or commercial building or space and to understand the field of negotiation in which the architect makes architectural proposals. Questions of architectural form making are raised in relationship to the interplay of representation and identity, the programmatic and structural organisation of buildings and their location within the urban field.
