Unit A

Unit A is a research-led BSc Architecture Design Studio at the University of East London, lead by Carsten Jungfer and Fernanda Palmieri. We work with live-project situations and connect design learning with research through knowledge exchange between students and external partner organisations. Unit A focuses on social-spatial conditions within contested urban contexts and understands architectural design both as a spatial and strategic response to specific socio-spatial contexts.

Jan de Vylder talk





ARCH+ features 40: Jan DE VYLDER from ARCH+ on Vimeo.

I came across this lecture by Flemish Architect Jan DeVylder and think this could be useful to watch in relation to where you currently are in your design process. He talks about how ideas are translated at various scales (from furniture to small buildings) into architectural proposals. It would be great if you could also start to think about materials, thresholds and the construction (structural aspect) of your proposal. 30 min. enjoy.
