Description

The examination of contemporary writing during the first half of the subject provides a basis for thinking about theory. This is complemented by a focus on criticism and practice for the remainder of the subject: students have the opportunity to reflect on a range of recent projects (speculative and built) using the perspectives offered by contemporary theory. In doing so the links between design, theory and critical reflection are evidenced and actively explored.

The knowledge and skills acquired in the subject are intended to support students in their pursuit of a critically informed approach to design and intellectual inquiry, grounded in a appreciation for the complementary functions of theory, critique and practice.
