Project S
This is the first-year Bachelor Project.
Unit: Architectural Urban Design and Engineering
A Home for 2nd Place
Designing a building, ensemble or transformation that in some way celebrates 2nd Place, uniting the identified opportunities and challenges.
Folly & Sacral
How to create a folly? How to create the sacral? And what do these excursions to outward positions tell us about central-stage functional design? What can be found in these worlds? How do they work (on us)?
Thinking Eye
how drawings are produced and how the observer responds to them
Spatial Imagination
How will our living experiences evolve in the future, and what will the future of shopping look like? in collaboration with IKEA Eindhoven!
Architectural Expression
Manifestation of a building or artefact regarding its construction, the visual art(s) in relation to the architectural design,
Structure & Architecture
The first year course Structure & Architecture addresses the relation between Structural Design and Architectural Design and how these disciplines can mutually benefit from each other.
Architecture: Models, Thought, Design
To acquire that causal knowledge, we analyse existing buildings both as historical precedents and as living labs. And we explore possibilities, using models.
Project L
This first year project focuses on design a city neighborhood or district. Based on the outcomes of this research they created a basic urban plan and design for a real estate (re)development.
Project M
In this first year Bachelor project, students design an observation tower, looking both into the structure – ensuring stability, how forces are distributed, which materials used, what columns and beams size.
