Course Objective

The purpose of the course is to enable students to integrate the basic skills they have acquired throughout their architectural education and to produce alternative, sustainable ideas and solutions to complex, multi-layered, current design problems and mixed-function programs. The course will be carried out in integration with other diploma projects, but students who choose this studio are expected to structure the conceptual foundations of the project idea they have developed, starting from the upper scale, with more in-depth inquiries and present it with different media techniques.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   1. By taking into account the principles of economic, social and physical sustainability, developing a creative and original idea that will create an alternative solution to the existing one for a current design problem.
2   2. Ability to produce settlement decisions that question location- and problem-specific situations and establish deep relationships with the context by deeply analyzing written, visual, digital and live resources related to the field.
3   3. Ability to correctly and creatively interpret a given mixed-function design program for the selected area
4   4. Being able to develop holistic and competent solutions at urban scale (relations with urban and immediate environment), architectural scale (plan, section, view) and detail scale (structure, material, detail) by relating a mixed-function design problem with complex dimensions in social and physical terms to the idea he/she developed.
5   5. Ability to make structural preliminary decisions related to the solutions developed
6   6. Ability to effectively present the final product designed graphically and verbally
