[120h] 7 credits
This course is taught in the 2d semester.
Teacher(s): Olivier Bourez, Nicolas Van Oost
Language: French
Level: First
Aims
Define the questions that come before the programming stage.
Identify the references and disciplinary resources necessary for the project.
Develop and formulate a specific programme, appropriate to the context.
Bring a programme and a site into mutual coherence through design work.
Produce a synthetic view of landscape, historical, institutional, urban and technical dimensions via the project.
Prepare a full project presentation.
Main themes
The design question is not given. A theme is proposed, and students must develop a position.
According to the proposed theme, students work in groups on a preparatory analysis: definition of a site, a programme, and identification of the theoretical questions raised by the theme.
Design work thereafter is individual.
The way in which the theme is posed should guarantee a plurality of approaches and the potential for an architectural realisation at appropriate scales: site plan, overall plan at 1/2000, 1/1000, 1/500; plans, sections, elevations at 1/200, 1/100, 1/50; details and profiles at 1/20, 1/10, 1/5, 1/2; models and perspectives.
This work will emphasize manual and computer-aided drawing skills developed thus far in the study programme.
