Feeling (at) Home: Building a Home in New Urban Fragments

Activity: Talk or presentation Lecture and oral contribution

Description

The course is based on a Learning by Design and Project-Based Learning
methodology, on which the project is the basis of the student’s education. The design course –architectural design– aims to offer critical reflections on the current social challenges in relation to housing and ecological issues. It integrates inquiry and study of the conditions and qualities that make a specific place inhabitable; skills on how to implement and develop building systems and techniques; and a rigorous knowledge and avid curiosity of architectural history, theory, and criticism that can operate within a particular cultural context while contributing meaningful
improvements to it. In this sense, the course reflects on new residential fragments
built in Aarhus through housing and domestic space in its different typologies,
formats, and contexts, and the study of building systems, materiality, and tectonics.
