Educational objectives The course has set itself the objective of providing students with the tools to control the modifications of complex architectural systems.The course aims to provide students with the following knowledge. Knowledge of traditional design techniques. Knowledge of innovative design techniques. The course aims to provide students with the following skills. Know how to apply the techniques in the control of traditional design modifications of complex architectural systems. Know how to apply the innovative design techniques in the control of the modifications of complex architectural systems.
Prerequisites Architecture and composition 3.
Teaching methods The course, which is supplemented by specialist seminars aimed at deepening the concept of architectural design as a system of theoretical-critical as well as technical-scientific knowledge necessary for the understanding and transformation of physical space, is divided into theoretical lessons and a design exercise.
Other information None.
Learning verification modality The exam consists of an individual oral test and the presentation of a project realized in a group. The test aims at assuring the level of knowledge and understanding, as well as synthesis, achieved by the student.
Extended program The course, which is supplemented by seminar initiatives aimed at deepening the concept of architectural design as a system of theoretical-critical than technical and scientific need for understanding and transformation of the physical space, is divided into lectures and exercises in a project.The lectures are divided into three training units: the theoretical framework (elementary principles), themes (layouts conventional), the new themes (layouts unconventional). The tutorial project covers a topic at the urban scale assigned by the teacher.

Educational objectives The main objective of the course is to provide students with the tools to control the modification of complex architectural systems. In this sense, the teaching aims to provide students with the critical and design tools necessary to analyse the existing and prefigure modification processes.
Prerequisites Passing of Composition 1,2 and 3 examinations and related laboratories.
Teaching methods The course is divided into theoretical lectures and design practice, supplemented by specialised seminars aimed at deepening some theoretical-critical themes both specific to the field of architectural composition and linked to different disciplinary fields, but closely interconnected to the construction of the design process (from sociology to anthropology, from art to visual communication).
Other information The professor will communicate with the students via the www.unistudium.unipg.it website.
The teaching material will also be available on the Unistudium page dedicated to the module.
Learning verification modality The examination includes an oral test centred on the discussion of theoretical content and the presentation of project exercises (individual and group). These tests are aimed at ascertaining the level of cognitive, critical and relational skills, as well as the ability to use the technical disciplinary language.
The colloquium will take place at one of the scheduled exam sessions on the dates previously published on the Department's website (https://ing1.unipg.it/).
Extended program To develop a knowledge and capacity for critical interpretation in the investigation of the relationship between the individual and physical space;
to develop knowledge and critical interpretation skills in analysing the identity characteristics of a place;
to develop an ability and autonomy to investigate the context at different scales;
to develop skills in project representation and communication;
to acquire knowledge of traditional and innovative design techniques;
to acquire theoretical-critical skills with respect to specific contemporary design issues (such as environmental sustainability or housing emergency).
