This subject was previously known as Interior Architecture Spatial Enclosure Studio.
The aim of this experimental design studio is to explore relevant theory to inform, translate and synthesise relevant aspects of human occupation in relation to a design proposition. The focus of this unit is on contemporary spatial typologies of 'WORK' that are in significant transition catalyzed by new technologies. Students consider future projections of occupation to generate a design proposition and project. Site analysis is a component of this unit.
