Course detail
Fundamentals of Architecture
FA-ZARAcad. year: 2011/2012
Theoretical introduction into the creative process of architectural design, in linkage to related disciplines. Characteristic of the fundamental functions of an architectural whole. The objective is to gain , by making a model, the knowledge of the basic effects of the spatial and material structure on the architectural form. Emphasis is put on the urgent need for a permanent awareness of an immediate feeling for building, since recently, in the design of the works of architecture, a constant shortcoming consists in the lack of direct experience with implementation. In our opinion, the activities of the designer and the implementer, now separated, belong to each other, and in the process of the education of the architect, the awareness of this close interrelation is to be preserved.
