Unit A

Unit A is a research-led BSc Architecture Design Studio at the University of East London, lead by Carsten Jungfer and Fernanda Palmieri. We work with live-project situations and connect design learning with research through knowledge exchange between students and external partner organisations. Unit A focuses on social-spatial conditions within contested urban contexts and understands architectural design both as a spatial and strategic response to specific socio-spatial contexts.

Tue 27 Nov - Tutorials

I hope you enjoyed the trip as much as we did and found inspiration in some of the buildings we saw.

We have now only two weeks to go until the crits during last week of term... so please have a look again at the drawing list and switch into your highest gear in terms of production. (list we posted for the interim crit)

For next tutorial please bring with you:
1 All drawings + amended / new drawings as per comments & issues raised by critics. Make sure you also have orthographic line drawings
2 Further site observations / site analysis in connection with your personal interest / threshold design / criteria. Clarity of who your design is interacting with, e.g. user-groups
3 Clarity of idea / criteria of what your threshold is about and how it performs
4 Idea / sketch for drawings / visualisation with context to show a specific scenarios / moment in time / situation of your threshold intervention with public realm.
