Architecture and Urban Design

Required course for architecture major, Spring semester

Course Description

…“Urbanism is an under-appreciated subject and urban design is an under-developed sensibility in architectural schools,” and “the hegemony of the individual building in design studio…continues to plague architectural culture.” (Kelbaugh et al, 2008)

This course is an introductory seminar on urbanism and urban design for undergraduate students. The goal of the course is to help students raise their urban awareness beyond the scope of singular buildings and to upgrade their understanding of diverse concepts and practices in urban design.

The course focuses on three components. The first component is understanding urbanism in 6 urban topics: urban space(공간론), urban form(형태론), urban place(장소론), urban information(도시정보), urban greenery(도시숲), urban visual aesthetics(도시경관미학); the second component is exploring representative cases of recent urban design projects; and the third component is studying the flow of urban design activities in Korea. In all three components, students’ active participation is highly encouraged.
