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.

drawing requirements Mid Year Review

Please find attached list of drawings - as a general / minimum guideline  - of what you are expected to show for the MID YEAR REVIEWS next week.

As previously announced we will run this as an open crit / wall presentation, which means you will have to print all your work in full size (A1) / or bring original sized hand-drawings and all of your work done this year and pin this to the wall.

make sure that you also bring along all of your casts / moulds / and other physical models you made, your field-trip sketch book and your site-diary from your many site visits.

You will have maximum 10 minutes to present your work. 15 min for questions / comments afterwards. We have invited Keita and Mo from unit H as our guest critics.


Please remember these mid term reviews form critical part of your assessment of the entire year. We expect everybody to present (no matter how much or little work you have) and to actively participate in open discussions on projects on both days (16th +19th)

These two days of reviews are very important to show you where you currently stand with your work, but also where your project might be heading to during the next term.

To engage in a discourse with external critics and presenting to an audience forms also part of the everyday life of a professional architect - important skills to develop and gain experience.
