Università Roma Tre

The design studio’s goal is to achieve a product comparable to what the Italian legislation usually defines as “final design”. It is, in other words, to put students in conditions, starting from the needs of the construction, to manage the simultaneous presence of specialist contributions (composition, structural, regulations, technological, environmental, technical physics, economic) involved in an achievable architectural project.

The design studio’s goals for the building construction design are to increase the students awareness of the complex transformation process of an architectural idea in a real building. The student competence to create coherence regarding content and design subject is our main aims.

The objectives of the individual module help to define the set of objectives of the entire course
The design studio’s goal is to develop students' awareness of the different construction aspects of the architectural design. Starting from the construction needs, the project is managed in collaboration by the teachers of the modules in its various specialist aspects (composition, construction, regulations, technological, environmental, technical physics, economic-financial, and also structural in collaboration with the parallel 2M Structural Design Laboratory).

The objectives of the individual module help to define the set of objectives of the entire course.
Among the first tasks, so that the project has completed development, you have to know what a "Feasibility Study". It aims to verify the general assumptions and conditions of the context in which it intends to develop the project initiative. To it, then, the task of building a framework for the subsequent need for further study. The areas of the Feasibility Study will include:
• technical feasibility;
• environmental compatibility;
• financial sustainability;
• economic and social convenience;
• Risk and sensitivity analysis (possible changes);
• implementation procedures.
