ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN V
Studio V emphasizes the idea of ‘place-making for urban communities. We will undertake a studio-based exercise that deals with urban blocks within a dense urban environment. The emphasis of this module will be on exploring the notion of ‘place-making’ and architecture that respond to this notion.
