This capstone course of the Design Media sequence focuses on "Urban Cultures" – the investigation and visualization of the socio-political, cultural/aesthetic, methodological, material/technological and theoretical underpinnings of exemplary architectural and urban case studies. It uses descriptive, analytical and theoretical precedents to expand students' knowledge of the architectural discipline. The course exposes students to the tools to extract concepts, methods and tools integral to these architectural works and to generate operative strategies for design.
