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.

Fri 29 Jan - 10.00 Charrette re-cap / 14.00 Lecture

Friday is a full day in the studio for reflecting on all the work you have produced during the last 3 Charrette workshops.

We will start (with your own tutors again) at 10.00 and will do this through tutorials in small groups.
It is critical that you bring all your work from the charrettes with you and have reflected on key design moves you made.

Should you have missed one workshop - it is essential that you catch up on this work. ESPECIALLY charrette No. 2 SPATIAL SEQUENCE MODEL. Everybody needs to have a sequence model by Friday + the other outcomes from No.1 + No.3

Please have model-making tools as well as drawing tools with you to work in the studio. 

14.00 Lecture

I will show and talk about two architectural projects that are relating in a particular way to their urban context / landscape. This should be pretty relevant to your designs and thinking about your proposals at this stage. Attendance critical!
