OBJECTIVES AND CONTENTS
Objectives of the Course Unit:	The aim of this course is to improve the skills of students to explore, understand, analyze basic design problems of 'space-environment-place'. In this context, 'differentiation-identity-place' concepts will be discussed in relation with architecture disipline in studios.
Contents of the Course Unit:	The students understand the basic architectural concepts of design problems, by re-reading existing models, and express-present their ideas via computer aided presentations and models.

KEY LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE COURSE UNIT (On successful completion of this course unit, students/learners will or will be able to)
Ability to place the building on a site considering the natural and artificial characteristics of the sites and to design the buildings.
Ability to design sites, facilities, and systems providing independent and integrated use by individuals with physical (including mobility), sensory, and cognitive disabilities.
Ability to gather, assess, record, apply, and comparatively evaluate the relevant information within architectural coursework and design processes.
Ability to work in collaboration with others and in multidisciplinary teams to successfully complete design projects.
Ability to examine and comprehend the fundamental principles present in relevant precedents and to make choices regarding the incorporation of such principles into architecture and urban design projects.
