This course will support the student's ability to by an experimental way to explore architectural possibilities for the design of the building / buildings in a contextual framework tied to both the site and community. Artistically-based exercises confronts both designverktygens as building possibilities and limitations. The course will give the student the ability to challenge the prevailing paradigm in the field of architecture by new future aspects.

The course aims to provide students with the means to develop a future-related architecture in the context of the dense city through the application of an exploratory laboratory work. Established hypotheses tested in a cyclic process to the results obtained with only the target is known. Continuous assessment will lead the design process on. Greater interaction with others, or adjacent disciplines included. International expertise involved in crucial moments. Teaching is in the form of projects where work is discussed from their practical and theoretical aspects. Architecture's relationship with the architect and engineer, tool highlighted as potential building provider capacity to achieve results. Supervision is provided regarding the practical application of knowledge in the architectural design of the building. Instruction is through individual and group exercises, seminars, lectures, visits and briefings. Concomitantly performed literature studies. A possible non-compulsory study trip may occur.
Grading scale: UG - (U, G) - (Fail, Pass)
Assessment: Approved assignment tasks, approved examination project and and at least 80% active attendance at seminars, visits and lectures. Compulsory attendance at reviews. The qualities of the project assignment and presentation are evaluated and dicussed by an examination team comprised of the course examiner, lecturers and external critics after which the examiner decides if the project is considered to fulfil the requirements for a pass. In the case of non-pass the student has the right to a new examination opportunity after any necessary amendment or re-formulation of the project. The examiner informs the student as to what is required in order to achieve a pass.
The examiner, in consultation with Disability Support Services, may deviate from the regular form of examination in order to provide a permanently disabled student with a form of examination equivalent to that of a student without a disability.
