Book Part Architectural Representation as a Body Without Organs(Taylor and Francis, 2024) Avcı, OzanArchitectural representation plays a critical role as a creative tool, facilitating dialogue and mediation between designer and design. While traditionally viewed as an objective entity, it holds potential for creative expression. Architectural representation is traditionally associated with objectivity and aesthetic beauty. However, as a design tool, it should also embrace subjectivity. Subjectivity in architectural representation goes beyond the architect’s style or drawings, encompassing the presence of the subject within the representation. At this stage, architectural representation becomes related to bodily experience and every experience has its own deformations. The presence of bodily deformations in architectural representations transforms its rigid body into a body without organs. This “new” body may be defined as “beast” rather than “beauty.” In this chapter, I would like to discuss architectural representation as a body without organs to highlight its emancipatory and participatory characteristics that may trigger creativity within the context of analogue and digital worlds. I would also like to emphasize the relationship between beauty and monstrosity that a bodily deformed architectural representation may create and start a new discussion on the aesthetics of architectural representation. © 2024 selection and editorial matter, Chara Kokkiou and Angeliki Malakasioti; individual chapters, the contributors.Book Part Design-Build Build/Design: an Inquiry-Based Approach To Teaching Beginning Design Students(Taylor and Francis, 2018) Subotincic, NatalijaThis chapter describes an alternate design studio approach that eschews the concept first pedagogy universally adopted in design studio education, avoiding the resulting trap of the seemingly endless formal manipulations that all too often displace the more inclusive material and technical development of a design. The introduction of "design-build" studios and programs into the academic architectural curricula of many schools worldwide reflects recognition of the unhealthy and artificial separation made between design studio culture and the content of technical courses and constitutes an important way of bridging this self-imposed gap. Preserving the simultaneity of concerns and relationships during the design process, although difficult, is rather crucial to an "inquiry-based" approach to learning. When beginning design students start a project without a particular building system in mind, they tend to flounder with respect to design decisions about the tectonic constraints and technical/constructional possibilities of their designs. © 2019 Taylor and Francis.
