1

Investigate (= imagine and evaluate) through drawing and in an iterative and reflexive process (back and forth between the sketch and the project) the potential of a situation to welcome new developments (morphological, typological, programmatic, "poetic"),

Integrate sustainable development issues into the architecture project process.

Choose the appropriate methods to conduct the development of the project: sketches, verification of potentials; plans, sections, elevations, volume views, material models; freehand drawing, measured drawings; manual drawing, computer-aided drawing; critical analysis of potential uses,".

Select the appropriate methods to present the project: choice of scales, choice of framing, choice of techniques (manual/informatics drawing, material models), layout,

Establish a discursive presentation of the project at its different stages (from sketch to project): oral/written,

More specifically for this project, he will have developed his skills at

Integrate data (morphological, typological, programmatic, constructive, climatic, "poetic") from a non-family context into the architecture project.

Rapidly develop an architectural project in a problem defined by a guest teacher and which conveys other cultural considerations.

Integrate the combined design work at different scales: from the context scale to the precise definition of architectural elements or from the urban/landscape context to the detail (1/20th).
