1 Jordan University spring 2014/2015 Faculty of Engineering& Technology Second Semester Department of Architecture Course: Architectural Design 2 Instructors : Dr. Jawdat Goussous 4 Credit Hours / Mon. Wen. 8:00-12:00 studio 1 13:00-17:00 studio 2 Course description Theory and practice of architecture as art and science; methods and techniques used in the analysis and synthesis of concepts unique to spatial enclosure; developing responses to building systems; objects in current cultural, physical or social context; complex building programs, site development and design solutions integrating formally expressive visual ideas and functionally adept planning concepts. "The design process is a sequence of events which demands creative behavior from its participants. It's activity is to improve existing conditions and to find clear paths out of dilemmas" (from The Universal Traveler). Course objectives To understand an analytical approach to design. To understanding the design process. To understand the interaction of culture and environment on built form. To design a project within programmatic requirements and constraints. To understand the process of a design-build project. To clearly communicate design ideas To work in teams. Theme of studio: Family commercial center Course schedule and evaluation: The course will include two major projects. within the project the specific concepts, skills, and techniques will be addressed in assignments and exercises. Please come to class with ALL necessary materials, READY TO WORK. Note: I reserve the right to modify this schedule during the duration of this course Performance evaluation Students' grades will be determined by: a. Projects: 80% Project 1: 40% Project 2: 40% Final exam: 20%

2 b. Attendance, participation, initiative, attitude, and team work will be considered Course policies - Attendance is required, absences will strongly affect your grade, and five absences will be grounds for failure. - Only work that has been reviewed in its preliminary stages will be graded. - Late or incomplete work will not be accepted. Required reading There will be additional assignments of readings for each project. Most of the references can be found in the library. Selected architect plus examples from his/ her work. You need also to analyze one project of his work. (Be thorough thinkers, specifically tackle the problems and be creative in suggesting solutions) Stage (1): Site analysis with function diagrams 5 points Stage (2): Concept and Synthesis 5 points Based on your through readings, interpretation, and evaluation, you have to develop the concept you submitted in the previous stage. Explaining how you would approach the design problem and, therefore, suggest the proper solution. Sketch drawings and mass models have to be an integral part of your propositions. Stage (3): Pre-final Submission 10 points Each student has to submit the following: Concept sheet Site plan Plans (Furnished) Two Sections Four elevations Open axonometric (furnished) Two interior perspectives Two Exterior perspectives Two architectural details (the entrance, main counter.. etc)

3 Mass model Stage (4): Final Design Submission 20 points Each student has to submit the following: Concept sheet Site plan Plans (furnished) Two sections Four elevations Two interior perspectives Two exterior perspectives Two architectural details (the entrance, main counter...) A detailed model References: Each student has to collect his own references from books, articles, and web sources. The following suggested references could be helpful: 1- De chaira J; Callender J.
