Course description
Students in this courses will investigate relationships between infrastructure and architecture. A critical assessment of advances in innovative and hybrid infrastructural architectural propositions will be undertaken to inform design proposals for projects related to transport, energy, mining, earthworks, water and/or waste management. Students will build an understanding of the contribution made by a range of disciplines to infrastructure projects. Interaction with consultant teams who collaborate on projects at the infrastructural scale will form an integral part of this course. Design proposals are expected to critically engage with architectural discourse to produce a project that exhibits detailed integration of conceptual endeavor and technical performance.
