Learning objectives
The lectures and exercises aim to integrate and provide an integrated perspective on architectural and urban activities through the role of the architect - balancing the "laws" of the market and the principles of the profession - in order to produce good architecture and respond to market demands. Using examples from local and global architecture, historical and contemporary cases, this subject explores the duality of the profession. The focus of studying hybrid architecture is on the idea of multifunctionality/functions of architectural and urban spaces, as opposed to monofunctionality. In contrast to typological studies of architecture, this subject encourages thinking beyond so-called functionalist architecture, exploring and designing based on the principle of combining multiple functions of architecture. As a result, these hybrid programs harness the complexity of an architect's skills to design spaces that, in synthesis, significantly enhance each other.
Learning outcomes
The method of work on the subject is practical and project-oriented with the aim of producing conceptual urban-architectural projects or solutions with architectural details. Students are trained in independent work and thinking on the project in complex spatial and programmatic contexts.
Content
Introduction to the typological approach to the study of architectural activities. Studying complex typologies of public buildings. Understanding the functions of architecture and program in architecture. Spatial economy: space quality. Studying "hybrid" examples in architecture and urbanism. Designing "hybrids" in space.
Teaching Methods
Lectures, exercises (creating graphic work according to the project task), HYBRID workshops, consultations, and exams.
