PG Architecture Unit 04: Phenomenal Stratification

Jonas Lundberg, Nate Kolbe

Unit04 continues its quest and exploration of how 3D scanning techniques and a range of emergent digital media allow us to work on a higher level of specificity when it comes to a time based ecological architecture forging an integral bond between landscape and building. What other/new forms of digital transformations can we utilize? Can emergent technology propel our search for a regenerative architecture?

PG Architecture Unit 08: Tolerance in the practice of architecture

Takero Shimazaki, Alex Butterworth, Katherine Nolan, Paolo Emilio Pisano, Jennifer Frewen

This year, Unit 8 will work with a theme of tolerance in architecture practice and design, exploring a way to design that is embracing of the anomalies and the ‘uncontrollable’ physical elements in the idea of re-use. We welcome Katherine Nolan and Alex Butterworth of Studio KA to our teaching team, collaborating and exploring the potential of re-use in architecture today and for the 21st century.

PG Architecture Unit 12: The Invisible World

Peter St John, Amy Grounsell

The year’s design project will examine environments for learning, and focus on the design of a school in North London with classrooms and a garden. We will visit sites of ecological interest with an ecologist, and study the ideas of artists and architects interested in nature. We will look for underlying relationships in the natural world that might provide a model for human inhabitation.
