Please note! Course description is confirmed for two academic years, which means that in general, e.g. Learning outcomes, assessment methods and key content stays unchanged. However, via course syllabus, it is possible to specify or change the course execution in each realization of the course, such as how the contact sessions are organized, assessment methods weighted or materials used.

CONTENT, ASSESSMENT AND WORKLOAD
Content
Valid 01.08.2020-31.07.2022:
The studio is an introduction into formal design methods. It explores the spatial dynamics of simple geometric configurations as conceptual framework for architectural design. The studio aims at a systemic understanding of architecture based on spatial relationships and investigates the idea of form as carrier of information.
Assessment Methods and Criteria
Valid 01.08.2020-31.07.2022:
Presentation at the interim and final jury is required as well as the timely hand-in of the final documentation. Weekly working in the studio is obligatory. Shortcomings will result in reduction of the final grade of at least one grade. The assessment is based on the design outcome (70%), the final documentation (20%), and active participation (10%). Grading is based on the following scheme:
5: outstanding (exceeds expectations)
4: very good (fulfils all expectations)
3: good (only minor shortcomings)
2: satisfying (major shortcomings in some areas)
1: acceptable (major shortcomings in almost all areas but meets minimum level)
0: not acceptable (major shortcomings in almost all areas)
Workload
Valid 01.08.2020-31.07.2022:
Total workload of 270 hrs consisting of input lectures (10 hrs), studio work (75 hrs), documentation (25 hrs) and independent design development (160 hrs).
