Course detail

Typology of the Town, Typology of the House

FA-TMDAcad. year: 2010/2011

The typology taught hitherto deals first and foremost with the functional and layout principles of designing the individual types of buildings. However, architecture is based not only on the functional schemes of buildings. In its development, architecture is connected with the conception and perception of the sites. The subject on the border line of urban planning and architecture tries to find their common features which the architect has to perceive, whether working on an urban development plan or on an interior design.
