Educational objectives The course aims at providing methods and interpretative-evaluative strategies for developing design skills through the control of compositional techniques and increasing knowledge of settlement and environmental dynamics in different contexts, with a focus on the relationship with preexistence.
Prerequisites Basic knowledge of architectural drawing.
Teaching methods Lectures will deal with architectural and urban composition, with a specific focus on the compositional processes related to urban, environmental, and territorial preexistence. Lectures will aim at delving deeper into the various design tools and the theoretical and technical knowledge required for understanding and transforming the environment and territory.
The educational activity will conclude with an applied exercise implementing the compositional analysis of a well-known building.
Other information None
Learning verification modality The evaluation of the mandatory individual exercises comes before the exam, which consists of an oral test about the notions learned during the course, the texts suggested, and the theoretical references studied.
Extended program The course aims to give the students the basic tools for starting a design process. Therefore, the following issues will be addressed: architecture and site; drawing as a tool for design; the notion of type in architecture; the plan; the house; the system of relationships between architecture, city, and landscape; building with the preexisting; the compositional analysis.
