The module teaches how to analyse the basics of spatial design, including typologies, spatial models, space allocation plans, constructions, location or topos, and environmental factors. The design fundamentals are developed in the exercise in phases from concept through draft to simple, detailed solutions. Design factors such as room shapes, daylight and artificial light, as well as the design-relevant use of materials will be treated theoretically and applied in practice in the design exercises. More information about the programme can be found in the Handout-GdE (pdf) under Documents. This will be put online around the end of September.
Methods:
The exercises are designed as a mixture between individual and group work. Critiques will be made at weekly intervals; digital and on-site appointments are planned alternately. Attendance is mandatory. In order to successfully complete VU Raumgestaltung, this theoretical part must also be successfully completed.
