ARC 1 14 ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN I 201 2 -201 3 Spring Term

This course introduces students to the foundational principles and methods used in architectural design analysis and synthesis processes. Through lectures and design projects, students will explore concepts of human inhabitation, space, tectonics, and the relationship between plan, section, and elevation. The course also considers site conditions and the relationship between interior and exterior spaces.

  1. DEPARTMENT of ARCHITECTURE INTERNATIONAL BURCH UNIVERSITY ARC 114 ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN I 2012-2013SpringTerm Assist.Prof. Dr. Mila Nikolic mnikolic@ibu.edu.ba

  2. Class Schedule: Wednesday, 12:00-13:45h • Practicalsessions: Wednesday, 08:00-11:45h

  3. Course Description The Architectural Design I studio lays down the foundations for architectural design. Through lectures, small scale and experimental design projects, thinking of human inhabitation, space, and tectonics, as well as the relationship between plan, section and elevation, the course introduces principles and methods used at various stages of design analysis and synthesis processes. Site conditions are introduced to the design process; and the relation between interior and exterior are considered with regard to inhabitation.

  4. Course Objectives This course seeks to: - Introduce students to the foundational vocabulary, syntax and application of the language of architecture. - Establish a momentum of studio culture while developing the basic concepts and activities for making architecture. - Define aspirational standards for craft and material sensibilities. - Create the ability to form clear architectural propositions and make qualitative assessments of design work. - Cultivate the spirit of inquiry and action.

  5. Textbooks • Neufert, Ernst and Peter Neufert: Architect’s Data. John Wiley & Sons, 2012 (4thed.). ISBN: 9781405192538, 608 pg. • Other relevant references will be provided during the semester in relation to specific topics.

  6. Learning Strategies Studio is the major component of the course. It requires the student to fully engage in the design problem.Readings and research intended to enhance the material of the studio and contribute additional thoughts related to concepts explored.Design journal/sketch book is required for recording field research, exploration of precedents, class material, reading notes, etc. Reviews serving as markers of the individual and the collective studio progress and direction.Should any changes in the syllabus be required during the course of the semester, in-class announcements and/or electronic postings will be made to alert all participants.

  7. Learning Outcomes Specific:-Understanding and exploration of architectural fundamentals, from the concept to its translation into architectural form. -Solving small real life design problems. -Developing design solutions inspired by context and purpose. -Enhancing design methods and abilities Generic:- Verbal, Writing, Graphic Skills- Research & Critical Thinking Skills- Communication &Collaborative Skills

  8. Grading Studio Operation and Structure The course will be taught by one faculty and administered by two teaching assistants. Students are responsible to and should digest feedback from the entire group of faculty, teaching assistants, and studio peers. Part of developing a critical understanding of architectural discourse is mastering the ability to engage a wide range of constructive critical feedback and use it to produce a position of your own and cultivate and develop your voice - in words, lines, and model making. Faculty will lead the lectures, general discussions and large group presentations of the studio. The teaching assistants will be responsible to specific pods of students and manage routine critiques, work submissions, attendance, and detail communication.

  9. Grading Grade structure Class participation 20% Assignment 1 20% Assignment 2 30% Exam 30% Design Journal submitted and graded as a part of assignments

  10. Brief Contents • Detailed schedule, assignments and content according to the semestral brief.
