Om emnet
•Apply knowledge of spatial qualities to explore good architectural solutions for a multistorey building (on a given plot). Building structure, building envelopes and common vertical communication space shall act as a sustainable architectural framework for future use and for different programs. The building's various levels shall be adapted to use both to office spaces and living spaces. Street level should mainly be used as a public function.
• Study and explore the impact of a building's internal infrastructure with concerns to building structure and vertical communication zones through exploration of both historical and contemporary examples of projects.
• Study and explore architectural possibilities for organization and design of structure and vertical communication space for buildings with different progams.
• Study and explore the architectural potential of various structures as a framework for good spaces and general usability over time.
• Study and explore the acoustic challenges and possibilities.
• Study and explore the organization and design of vertical communication space in terms of design, usability, and spatial qualities.
• Study and explore design of the building envelope in terms of daylight and materiality as well as possibilities and challenges concerning solar heat, moisture and durability.
• The students will be sketching and later process their studies using different media (analog and digital) as well as digital and physical 3D model studies
• Implement and summarize experiences from excursions.
