The module Design Theory I seeks to establish the theoretical and professional frame to an integrated, intellectual and specific architectural debate and project making within the concentration Design Theory.
The topics center on issues to develop critical positions towards subjective reasoning in architecture and to further the ability to root these positions in the history and theory of architecture, as well as in the political, sociological, and cultural context of contemporary architecture and society. Theoretical planning and architectural articulation of space considering notions such as typology, morphology and style are fundamental topics in architectural education.

The compact projects are set to complement skills and knowledge acquired in the project studios and to broaden the horizon of the students.

The aim of the module is to provide students with the necessary architectural tools and intellectual instruments and avareness to integrate the knowledge aquired in the Courses Design Theory I into a responsible and sustainable professional behaviour.

At the end of the module each student should have the ability to demonstrate and/or work with:

• A researched understanding of design in order to take a position as a designer reflected in the ability to devise and implement strategies
• A critical understanding of the intellectual and aesthetic content of self-selected buildings that supports architectural judgement.
• Researched and critical evaluation of the briefing and performance of buildings.
• The ability to define what type of research is relevant, what questions to ask, and which formats to record the findings to best serve as a springboard to design decisions.
• Execute complex defined and self-defined projects of research, development or investigation and identify and implement relevant outcomes.
• Ability to plan and compose buildings exhibiting complexity in terms of function, scale and context.
• knowledge on the humanistic currents through the reading of selected literature
• An understanding of the history of architecture reinterpreted considering political, sociological, and economical aspects.
• An insight into the structure and the workings of the outer organs of perception and perception in general.
• Demonstrate the ability to work with other students for.
• The ability to communicate complex ideas and concepts comprehensibly in visual, oral and written forms.
• Present and evaluate arguments, information and ideas concerning the various fields discussed in this module, and the ability to integrate these aspects in their individual design thinking and work.

• Intermediate and final review with externals

All courses in the module have to be passed with a sufficient grade (minimum grade of 4.0).
The module grade will be determined from the weighted average of the single course grades.

Interactive lectures

The participants get to know the basic concepts, theories and models of intercultural communication. They become acquainted with the dimensions of national cultures and know how values in a culture develop. They understand the connection between values, behaviour and communication. They are able to analyse their own and foreign conversational situations, assess and evaluate the parameters. They appropriate for themselves the necessary cultural awareness, thereby enabling themselves to interact correctly in as unprejudiced a manner as possible according to the situation. In this way, they create for themselves a setting that enables them to act sensitively and successfully in intercultural contact. In addition, they are capable of integrating this knowledge into intercultural cooperation and global management.
