Unit A

Unit A is a research-led BSc Architecture Design Studio at the University of East London, led 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.

Emanuelly Cardoso Santos has been nominated for the RIBA ELAG Student Award 2025 for Contextual Design for her project titled ‘Stratford Craft School’ that offers opportunities for children to learn practical, hands-on skills in a supportive environment and combines multi-use galleries for local artists to exhibit their work, host workshops and bringing people of all ages together through art and making. Congratulations and fingers crossed!
