Course objectives:
1) To develop the ability to generate solutions to spatial constructs, which integrate principles of design
with functional requirements
2) To develop an understanding of the holistic role of an Architect and Architecture in society.
We inhabit and function in space, both the manmade and the natural i.e., “a life spent within an
enclosure”. These enclosures have functional and cultural meanings, are symbols of abstract ideas of that
period in time.
"Architecture is the art we all encounter most often, most intimately, yet precisely because it is functional
and necessary to life, it's hard to be clear about where the "art" in a building begins." - Jonathan Jones
"Architecture is a discipline directly engaged with shaping enclosure, of erecting and toppling barriers or—
more explicitly—of extending and limiting ‘freedoms’." - E. Sean Bailey &Erandi de Silva
