Learning outcomes
By the end of the module students are able to use design as a tool for "knowing" landscape, architecture and town, in order to define the centrality of the relationship between analysis and design. In particular, students are able to use different representation techniques to analyse, understand and describe the landscape, town and architecture.
Course contents
Representation processes and tools are considered as means which cannot be separated from the ends. This hypothesis is both theoretically grounded in, and confirmed by, the constant role that design has played in the work of the masters of the past, which emphasises the centrality of the analysis/design relationship.
