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.

Craft Hub
To nurture creativity and to provide a valuable resource for the community, the project establishes a wood and metal workshop. This dedicated workspace aims to cater to individuals with a passion for craftsmanship and hands-on creations. The workshop will be equipped with a wide range of tools and machinery, allowing both beginners and experienced artisans to explore and develop their skills. Additionally, a well-stocked material shop will be incorporated within the facility. The site will undergo enhancements that involve demolishing inactive garages and revitalising an old playground. This integration will provide opportunities for young people to participate in creative activities, fostering a sense of inclusivity within the community.
