| Contents | The course will explore the aspects of architectural design that pertain to the interplay between internal and external spaces in the context of special dwellings and non-residential architectural types. The course will acquaint students with the design through targeted lectures based on specific case studies and the following literature. |

| Educational objectives | The course aims at providing methods and interpretative-evaluative strategies for developing design skills at the scale of interior design through the control of compositional techniques and increasing knowledge of special types of dwelling and living. |
| Prerequisites | Knowledge of techniques of design’s graphic representation. |
| Teaching methods | The educational activity includes lectures, guided exercises, revisions, and moments sharing the various work steps of students. Both individual and collective revisions are expected. |
| Other information | None |
| Learning verification modality | The exam is preceded by the evaluation of the practical individual and/or group exercises, which are mandatory to take the exam. It consists of an oral test dedicated to the presentation of the teaching path carried out during the various exercise activities, referring to the texts suggested, and the theoretical references studied. |
| Extended program | The course consists of a variety of activities, including lectures, some delivered by invited professors, extempore exercises, in-situ exercises (conducted outside of the classroom), practical activities within the classroom, and group corrections, revisions, and discussions. Lectures will deal with the issue of "what is home" in a broad sense, opening questions about inhabiting spaces. We will explore the design in a "from inside to outside" manner, emphasizing a compositional process that begins with the internal spaces and extends to the external ones, and vice versa. We will analyze spaces of worship, therapeutic spaces (hospitals), work spaces (offices), temporary dwelling spaces (hotels), and educational spaces (schools), among others. We will delve deeper into the dwelling issue, focusing on vulnerable and impoverished individuals. |
