Università Roma Tre

Students (individual or in groups of two) will be involved in the project of a small public building - a museum - in the former slaughterhouse in Testaccio. The museum architecture, beyond its specialized aspects, appears particularly well qualified to experience the first approach to a complex building, for its aesthetic and functional constraints, for the presence of different uses, and for his close relationship with public space. From this point of view, locating in the former slaughterhouse is focusing on familiarity that students have with the place, in order to implement the project with the experience already acquired in terms of measures and use of space, as well as relationships with the urban context.
We will alternate lectures, focus upon individual design aspects, laboratory work, exercises on specific issues, with the aim to advance the student's architectural skills and the representation / presentation of their ideas. There will be periodic connections and shared experiences with the two parallel courses.

The Studio will focus on an Architectural Design of building of medium scale and complexity. The students will be asked to pay attention to the tectonic components of its architectural space, but at the same time start to focus on a critical relationships with the urban environment and with open spaces.

The Design Workshop of the Second year of the degree course in Science of Architecture has as objective the design of a medium-sized building and complexity. With it aims to provide an architecture student experience of accomplished design, depth and aware of the surroundings urban and technological complexity, structural and environmental related to a project of this level. Think a significant space, both in relation all'internità architectural organism, both in relation to the part of the city. For the student this experience wants to represent disciplinary knowledge related to the tradition of architectural design, but also practical skills, manuals, which may extend to the planning of a board of architecture, a panel presentation, sketches collected in the album, a small plastic.
The theme of the year is the design of a Library at the service of the Department's activities. It will contain spaces for reading, book storage, student services and spaces for teaching and meetings. The library will be a place of relationship between the Department and the city.-One Of collective use space and relationship, establishing contextual relations between the elements of design and constitutes a small central or a "city gate" to the neighborhood level.
