To further develop students' knowledge of a range of contemporary theoretical positions in design culture nationally, regionally, and internationally, with an emphasis upon current design theory and practice.
Students will advance their knowledge and vocabulary of design theory and practice through the study of Australian and International contemporary architecture. Students will build upon their skills to critically analyse the key narratives and themes underpinning the development of contemporary architecture, interiors and landscapes, and to describe design's relationship to contemporary society, environment and cultural identity through academic research and writing.
