The aims of Studio Work 3 are for all students to: form and articulate a critical, personal and ethical position; assemble the evidence to substantiate architectural judgments, with intellectual anaesthetic rigor; demonstrate an ability to research and critically evaluate original source material, to explore and record design decisions, and to be able to reflect upon them; demonstrate the ability to design a building, from an understanding of sustainability, by devising and implementing strategies for siting and construction; through the detailed design of the building and its internal environment; demonstrate the ability to design a building that articulates the difference between the public and private realms through the organisation of the building on the site, its form, structure and construction and the quality of its internal and external spaces; show initiative, work independently and with others, valuing collaboration and exchange, to develop and communicate design ideas beyond the discipline of architecture; and develop a portfolio of work that satisfies the General Criteria and Graduate Attributes of the ARB & RIBA – Part 1.
