N A T I O N A L T E C H N I C A L U N I V E R S I T Y O F A T H E N S Since its foundation in 1917, the School of Architectural Engineering of the National Technical University of Athens has been a pioneer in the higher education of Greek architects. A basic aim of the School's curriculum is to educate professionals who will develop clear ides and views on architecture, understand in depth the social conditions in which they are going to work and master the essential technical knowledge and sensitivity to cope with the development of architectural ideas.

N A T I O N A L T E C H N I C A L U N I V E R S I T Y O F A T H E N S The School has around 1500 undergraduate students and 60 members of teaching staff. It collaborates with other Universities in Greece and abroad through educational programs and student and staff exchanges. It invites regularly guest lecturers, Greek and foreign architects and scientists with interesting contributions in relevant subjects.

Topics of the lecture The presentation will focus on some aspects of the teaching procedure in regards the aims and priorities of the architectural design courses in now days. An analysis of the methodology, and the demands according the criteria and principles we use as a teaching procedure will be presented, using as a paradigm the course of the architectural design during the 7th and 8th semester in the School of Architectural Engineering, NTUA,Athens Greece..

DESIGN AND THEORY COURSE DESIGN PROJECT 7-8 Interdisciplinary Course NTUA SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURAL ENGINEERING The course is organized with the collaboration of the departments 1.Architectural Design 2.Architectural language Communication and Design 3.Architectural Technology TEACHING STAFF(for the last 3 years 2010-2013 ) P. VASILATOS Lecturer M. KAFRITSA Associate Professor (coordinator) I. EFESSIOU Professor K. KARADIMAS Assistant Professor N.MARDA Associate Professor K. MORAITIS,Professor D. NIKOLAOU, Assistant Professor T. PAPAIOANNOU Professor D. PAPALEXOPOULOS, Professor S.ROGAN, Professor J.TERZOGLOU,Professor S. TSIRAKI, Assistant Professor B.TSOURAS, Assistant Professor

The main subject of the course is the design of a Public building with multiple function, such as a public library, a city museum e.t.c. The course is characterized by an annual duration which allows students to approach and solve complex architectural-functional problems in depth. The project is facing the requirements of a specific place and program.

Course main aims and priorities The students deal with : COURSE 7th 8th sem. ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN 7 & 8: public service multiple functions building The study of matters concerning the combination of architectural design and construction expression. The formation and design of the supporting structure. The parameters affecting construction and technology options. The environmental design parameters.

Course main aims and priorities COURSE 7th 8th sem. ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN 7 & 8: public service - multiple functions building. Also,they have to analyze : -the expansion in height and the vertical structure and circulation of the building. -the layout and character of interior space, -the significance of constructional system and the construction materials, colors and lighting during the project elaboration. -the outdoor public space. - the design of interior and outdoor space into a synthetic cohesion of public use.

Course main aims and priorities To elaborate their project using drawings from scale 1:500 for the urban analysis, to 1:200,1:100, 1:50 for the drawings and handmade models of the building formations, to 1:20,1:10, 1:5 for the detailed drawings and handmade models of the building s construction. 3d digital analysis and representation to present their project.

This presentation will be referred to : -The important role of the analysis of the urban space as a basic parameter for the design procedure. The notion of topos (place) and its incorporation in the methodology of the design procedure. Urban analysis. Study of the components of the urban tissue as functional units, and also as elements defining the aesthetics of the urban environment. Understanding of the relation between parts and whole, volume and void in the urban tissue, blocks, public and private space, streets and communicational axes, urban green spaces.

COURSE 7th and 8th semester ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN 7-8 The project as a paradigm to be built. From the idea to the construction reality The significance of the construction materials, colors and structure. The significance of the analysis tools : the section drawing and models for the understanding of the building structure and form. The use of various techniques such as 3d digital representations and diagrams for the elaboration of the project.

Student s projects will be presented,emphasizing the above issues, made by Greek and Erasmus students, as a material of analysis and discussion. This course has a priority in the ERASMUS student s choices.

The methodology DESCRIPTION OF THE AREA SITE ANALYSIS Drawing phases of design RELATIONAL DIAGRAM COMPOSITION

The methodology 1.analysis 7th- winter semester The elaboration of the project is facing the following steps : -Analysis of the wider region, where the building is situated and the particular characteristics of the topos it has both physical and social meaning. Description with maps,drawings and writings, all the important characteristics of the urban tissue in order to create a kind of conversation with the environment. -Analysis of the site, and its physical and spatial characteristics. -Analysis of the program,the specific requirements that has to do with the actual use and its functional and numerical components, the law regulations for the built environment.

The methodology 2.synthesis 7th- winter semester Synthesis The formation of the main components of the design process the structure of the building using sketches drawings,especially the section drawings and the models such as : The investigation of the movements, both vertical and horizontally, from and towards the building. Questions of integration,the relation of the building with the place that will receive it. built environment, or the landscape, through significant keys as Scale, structure, typology and the corporeity (material ). The use of basic typological models for the elaboration of the project. The different qualities of space through the movement, from closed to open space, from private to the public. The social dimension of architectural practice.

The methodology 7th- winter semester 2.synthesis -Site plan drawing with the configuration of open and closed space, scale 1: 200, - Models of work in scale 1: 500, 1: 200 -Plans of all levels, the organization of spaces and their functionws, sections, facades as well as the organization of load bearing structure, in scale 1: 200 - Every other element or drawing that will be judged essential for the better presentation of the project.

8th - spring semester Student s Projects ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN 7& 8 Tutors: D. Isaias 3. Construction analysis In the 8th semester, a more detailed analysis and design of the project takes place. Students continue designing the building and the surrounding landscape area in smaller scales. They select a part -a zone- of the building, of special interest, which they study in scales 1:50 and 1:20-1:10, with the corresponding constructional details. The frame structure is solved and studied in detail. Also, adequate axonometric, 3d drawings and models (usually1:50) are constructed.

8th - spring semester Compulsory by choice course 4. 3d digital analysis and representation of the buildings 3D Digital building design structural form research (space, materials, light) Creation of digital reproduction of the building in a pc with 3d design program. Special emphasis on the approach through the light parameter, material expression, texture and color. ADAMOPOULOS,PAPPAS

Focus on : - the concept of a Municipal Library - the relation of the building to the special landscape of the area and the city of Athens -the materiality and the structure construction of the building. -(Basic construction materials, load bearing structure composition, in relation to interior design - and general architectural proposition)

ANALYSIS an exercise the experience of reading TEACHING STAFF GROUP: I. Efesiou Professor K. Moraitis Professor D. Nikolaou - Assis. Professor THE GENERAL ISSUES The purpose of this exercise to determine the experience of reading, not so much the library space. Main Issues of concern are: How do I read? How do I read with others and why? The "fetishistic" relation to the book is still valid or is it being gradually replaced by digital reading? What is a library and what does it represent today? Can a contemporary library relate to any kind of symbolism or symbolic values? THE PROJECT Design a library of 100m2-200m2, according to a concept about the experiences of reading in a public place. The plan and section of the library are not predefined,. You must present the atmosphere of the place you want to create, the lighting conditions, the comfort wanted, the visual connection or not with the surrounding space. Choose the main materials to be used in order to define qualities Select in what setting (urban or not) the library will be located in. The exercise focuses on abstract perceptual approach to the experience of reading in a library area of 100-200m2 use drawings, a simple model, collage, or any other combination you choose,, This exercise will be presented in class with PowerPoint presentation (3-7 slides).
