Travel Architecture on the Arctic Circle
This year the building design studio 1 will study travel architecture in Lapland, near the Arctic Circle. The design studio is supported by this lecture series on the theme. We will focus on how to develop architecture arising from the environmental and cultural context. We will look into designing hospitality spaces and explore new possibilities for tourism in the arctic area in relation to nature.The lecture series is mandatory for all Building Design Studio 1 participants and open for other master level students as well. During the lecture course you will be writing a reflection essay on how the themes discussed during the lectures have shaped your own design work and how they could be put into practice in your future work as an architect.
Schedule:
Lectures take place on Tuesdays 10.15 – 12.00 in zoom during period I. Links to zoom meetings will be posted on MyCourses in advance. Pre-reading material relating to the theme of the lecture will be shared on MyCourses beforehand.
