Learning unit contents
Sanaa Revisited
The objective of this course of applied research is to stimulate the critical and analytical comprehension of the architectural and theoretical production of architecture in the Euregio Meuse Rhein (Liège, Maastricht, Hasselt, Aachen).
The methodology of the course is based on a dual approach (theoretical and practical).
The theoretical analysis is focussing on a critical reading of writings from/on the architects.
The practical analysis (formal, spatial, exploratory analysis of design processes/strategies) is made by means of models, diagrams, and visual documents.
The cours is conceived as a critical research studio.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
The learning outcomes are the following ones: - enhance the skills of critical analysis, comprehension and synthesis (in the field of architectural analysis, theory and critique) - optimize the skills of visualization and graphical representation (by means of models, diagrams) - exercice the reading/writing skills in english language - further mastering of computational skills (in relation to representation, CAD)
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
