78299 - Technical Architecture and Practice-Oriented Design Studio II

Academic Year 2018/2019

  • Moduli: Annarita Ferrante (Modulo 1) Luca Guardigli (Modulo 2)
  • Teaching Mode: Traditional lectures (Modulo 1) Traditional lectures (Modulo 2)
  • Campus: Bologna
  • Corso: Single cycle degree programme (LMCU) in Architecture and Building Engineering (cod. 0940)

Learning outcomes

The course is characterized by the study of the relationships between the constructive aspects, the spatial organization and the formal resolution in the design of architecture, considering its inclusion in a specific environmental context. The construction techniques are also seen in relation to the history of the buildings and to the evolution of structural types. The topics covered in the course are specifically articulated in the workshops and laboratory, which deepens the knowledge in the constructive apsects of the project up to the definition of the detailed solutions.
