Description

This course provides students with a unique understanding by experiencing multi-disciplinary processes required for the design of a significant structure relevant to design coursework. The brief for the studio-based design project will include artistic, formal, functional, siting, loading, sustainability, budgetary, and other performance criteria. Multi-Disciplinarity will be achieved by integrated team working, with participation from other design-based faculties (Faculties of the College of Fine Arts, Built Environment and Engineering). Coursework includes lectures, individual research, design, team management, visual and physical modelling, reporting and presentation. The product will be capable of subsequent fabrication and construction, through another course BENV2724 Multi Disciplinary Construction and Fabrication Workshop. Students are encouraged to undertake both courses but they can be taken independently.
