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.

Tim Ronalds Lecture Thu 18 Apr 18.00


Everybody should try to attend this. Very relevant to Unit A agenda this year. Public buildings, etc.

Tim Ronalds will try to describe in straightforward terms, using examples, how the team goes about the practice of architecture – their set up, and how they collaborate in the office, find work, develop designs, work with engineers and work with contractors to build their buildings. Tim Ronalds Architects mostly design arts, education and public buildings; for clients who are building for their own use. This is less common nowadays than it used to be. Tim will show the projects they completed last year – Ironmonger Row Baths and the University of Kent Music Building, and the schemes they are currently working on to explain how they work.
