This subject was previously known as Interior Architecture Extreme, Complex and Bizarre Studio.

This theory informed design studio unit aims to synthesize and stretch the students' understanding and application of design methodologies towards speculating on and imagining new visions for the future. It focuses on extreme, complex and bizarre environments, such as space travel or the underground bunker. Philosophical and theoretical readings are explored as other ways of thinking and seeing the world. Similarly, possibilities for geographic, built and spatial typologies and material realities are investigated. This unit involves fieldwork.
