THEORIES OF ARCHITECTURE & URBANISM [ARC61303] [ARC2224]- Analyzing and Theorizing Architecture

Learning Outcomes

1.Analyse architecture and urban forms in relation to relevant architectural theories
2.Analyse and critique the relationship between architecture and its social, cultural and intellectual context
3.Produce, orally and in writing, a critical interpretation of architecture and urbanism in relation to relevant theories within the contemporary discourse of architecture


PROJECT PART I: ANALYSING SELF

  In a group of three members,  we gathered information on the architect (Biodata (childhood, education, working experience) + List of work + pictures + address + references​)
in order to comprehend personal attributes that contribute to the construction of architectural theory.

PROJECT PART II: ANALYZING AND THEORIZING ARCHITECTURE

  Specifically, we performed a thorough study in analyzing and theorizing architecture and document the findings accordingly:
a particular building by the architect) based on:
a) External contributing factors (climate, architectural theory, etc)
b) Analysis diagrams (plan, section, elevation)
c) To theorize architecture based on analysis of self & architecture​
