Course description
Students in this course negotiate the ideological underpinning of existing and future institutions in the design of buildings and precincts for governance, justice, diplomacy, education or culture. Students learn the dynamic and contested nature of exterior and interior public space and are challenged to develop compelling architectural expression for organisations that play a significant role in public life. Design proposals engage with the political structures and processes that drive this building type. Designing with the complex briefing and planning requirements for institutional and public buildings is essential to this course.
