| Credits: | 12 |
| Learning Outcome: | At the end of the module, students will be able to place the neighbourhood in the context of the city, define specific urban problems, and recognize inherent potentials for improving the quality of life through employing urban design tools. They will become familiar with strategies for urban rehabilitation, revitalization, and development. Additionally, students can apply practical exercises and theoretical findings to the design process. Students will also acquire the ability to conduct a creative urban analysis of a given study area from a morphological, historical, social, economic, and environmental perspective. They will understand multiple layers and systems of an urban structure, define the requirements and opportunities for redevelopment, understand the correlation between urban space and building typology, develop an urban design concept, and finally, be proficient in reasoning and presenting a project. |
| Contents: | The project is offered in the form of a design project and is carried out in teams of 2 to 3 students. In the Project issues related to urban rehabilitation, revitalization, and development of existing building stock, as well as urban extensions and new developments in conversion areas at the neighbourhood level, are analysed and developed into a design solution. Expanding beyond specific neighbourhoods, the module explores the intricate dynamics of the city as a complex entity. It involves practicing how urban mechanisms respond to interventions in urban space, recognizing, evaluating, and harnessing these dynamics. A creative analysis of the context, is followed of conceptually and strategically work in a team within a given time and to propose an urban program. Conceptual ideas are then developed based on identified problems, qualities, and potentials, tested through alternatives, and weighed against the backdrop of conditions for city production. Depending on the specific question, the urban design concept will be developed into guidelines and strategies and finally translated into spatial solutions on both urban and architectural scales. |
