Course Objectives This course introduces students to new design in existing urban or natural context on the given site. By the end of the unit the student will successfully demonstrate knowledge about architectural context of some space and understanding of appropriate approaches to the design of new buildings in old settings and the conservation issues that arise from such design proposals.

Learning Outcomes After successful  completion of the course, the student will be able to:
  1. Identify the most fundamental aspects of architectural existing context.
  2. Develop skills for reinterpretation and respect of tradition and existing.
  3. Indentify importance of previous in architecture.
  4. Prepare design solutions to be suitable in an existing building fabric.
  5. Present appropriate approaches to the design of new buildings in old settings and the conservation issues that arise from such design proposals.
Teaching Methods Lectures with examples and class discussionss. Active tutorial sessions for engaged learning and continuous feedback on progress. The assessment styles makes the most of feedback opportunities by design critique enabling the student to see assessment as an integral part of their learning process.
