Enrollment limited: first come, first served
Limited to 10 participants.
With the advent of computation and the introduction of new creative processes and techniques, the practice of architectural and urban design is changing and with it both the artifacts themselves and the new cultural conditions they help create. In a single two hour session, we will introduce the topic and:(i) review examples of how architectural and urban design impact human activities and behavior; (ii) review literature in the field of psychology that posits cognitive development to be socio-cultural in nature; (iii) reconsider architecture and urban design processes, evaluation methodologies and the architect-client-user relationship in light of the above.
