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.

Terry Farrell Industrial Buildings





You will have noticed a range of similar looking industrial buildings with facades that have stepped reflective glazing and brick in the sourrounding area of the Chocolate Factory. The interiors feature a near column free space (for flexibility) and have a surprising section and a spatial quality I didn't expect. The service core is kept to the minimum and is strategically placed. The buildings were designed by Terry Farrell Partnership in the 1980-ties.
