Course Overview

Students will observe the environment around the site and the city from the viewpoints of housing, architecture, and urbanism, and discuss how the results are incorporated into architectural design by taking up specific examples. In addition, as a practical application of architectural design theory, each student will make a proposal for an architectural project.
