The module emphasizes on experiencing space and place in architecture. In the subject, students are introduced to, firstly, an exploration of spatial typologies and poetics in archtiecture; and secondly, the concept of neighborhood and community. In their preliminary design work, students engage with studies and design of different spatial typologies for a simple dwelling space which explores the idea of arhcitectural tectonics and experiences. Subsequently, the major project involves the design of a small-scale community building in the open landscape/suburban condition which engages with the spirit of the place inherent within the site, the site topography, history and socio-cultural events. The design work explores the plan-section intergration to achieve architectural form that is tectonically expressive, functional, and reponsive to its site. At the same time, design exercise relates to spaces with values and culture, while emphasizing the role of the society in the creative architectural design process.
