Learning Outcomes
By the end of the course, the student must be able to:
- Critique a specific project brief and a specific context and respond with a meaningful data-driven design concept.
- Translate a data-driven design concept into meaningful architectural and/or urban propositions at appropriate scales and levels of granularity.
- Produce coherent architectural representations and models at sufficient levels of detail.
- Formulate Formulate the morphogenetic narrative and create convincing arguments for the design propositions.
- Develop convincing final diagrams, drawings, renderings, simulations, physical and digital models.
Transversal skills

Assessment methods
Grading will be based upon the quality of the projects in the preliminary stages, intermediary reviews, and in the final review. Projects will be assessed based on:
(1) their conceptual strength and innovation,
(2) the coherence and resolution of their architectural translation,
(3) their representative clarity and expressive power, and
(4) the persuasiveness of their communication, both orally, and through the physical and digital artifacts.
