Course description
Tectonics and Precision: Students in this course use the elemental logic of different materials and methods of construction to generate the design of a building of medium scale and complexity. Integration of building technologies with formal, environmental and aesthetic ambitions is pursued across all scales of a resolved design proposal. Documentation drawings and working models that precisely capture the means by which the design intent will be realised are produced.
