Student projects have been purposefully designed to introduce the
students to the intellectual, material and spatial culture of
architecture; seeing, understanding and responding to the parameters of
place; recognising landscape as architecture… all intended to foster
design and strategic thinking skills and the value of risk-taking in the
creative process.
Surviving architecture education and its notoriously challenging
curriculum is an achievement worthy of reflection from time to time. It
is an experience unlike any that many of us former and current students
can attest to, one that stretches us to our cognitive, emotional and
physical limits. Demanding a frenetic production of work with unfamiliar
principles and materials, we spend our school years crafting a range of
projects that develop our design-thinking and -making abilities.
