Subject Description

A study of some formative aspects of European architecture, landscape architecture and urbanism from the Renaissance to the 18th century, and concurrent developments elsewhere in the world. Detailed studies of various periods within this broad spectrum are made, exploring issues of spatial organisation, construction, architectural theory, architectural grammar, the physical, social and economic context of development, and the role of the architect in society.

Assessment

An essay, class papers, exercises (drawn or written), and a visual test, to the equivalent of not more than 5000 words, and one 90-minute examination (which may take the form of a class test).
