Studio 1 is a hands-on environment where making, creating, and experiencing are central. By analysing and reflecting, we develop our individual perspectives on space and our profession. The studio delves into deeper meanings and influences within spaces, from experienced phenomenology (sensory) to spatial sentiment (influenced by memory and auto-ethnographic knowledge).

In the architectural field, space is often defined as a fixed body, shape, location, and scale. However, its influence on human and more-than-human life transcends these definitions. We explore in this course the different situations of space, considering its historical, material, political, social, and environmental landscapes.

Learning Objectives:

• The student is aware of the various effects and influences spatial design has on human and more-than-human life.

• The student is aware of their own biases as a space-maker.
