Objectives of Project
- To integrate architectural design and research through a specific case study, supporting students’
design through extensive research within the framework of sustainability design in Asia.
- To introduce students to activities which culminate in the production of the study; collection, indexing
and evaluation of information; analysis of information; compilation and organization of study; writing of
study; assembly of illustration and text; design of layout; binding and presentation.
Learning Outcomes of this Project
- Analyse and discuss in depth on the selected research area based on the assigned building, within the
framework of sustainable design.
- Identify significant elements of sustainable design through investigation on the assigned building.
- Produce, orally and in writing, a critical interpretation of sustainable design of the assigned building.
- A paper (3,000 to a maximum of 4000 words, double-spaced).
- A power point presentation (10 minutes) – which contains an outline of the paper covering key issues
and themes explored, as well as bibliography.
Project 2: Case Study- An Asian Street
Objectives of Project
- To develop critical perspectives on architecture and urbanism in situations where tradition, modernity
and globalization intersect through an exploration of the history of South, Southeast and East Asian
architecture
- To promote and develop students’ knowledge and understanding of selected aspects of Asian
architectural and urban design through first-hand experience gained through a study visit to an
appropriate local or overseas location relevant to the theme
- To develop in each student increasing skills and independence in information gathering, visual and
verbal analysis, and critical synthesis
- To develop in each student increasing skills in clear, effective, written communication, employing
recognized scholarly and professional conventions
- To enhance further students’ interpersonal and intra personal skills
Learning Outcomes of this Project
