Proposition Studio Unit (KDA726)

Introduction

Studios in the Master of Architecture develop capacities essential to the discipline and practice of architecture. With Integration Studio, Proposition Studio is one of two final-year Studio units that provide keystones to architectural learning at university. Proposition Studio culminates the designresearch stream within the Master of Architecture degree, and requires students to apply synthesised design, technology, and theory knowledge learned at undergraduate level and in the first year of the course.
