The Bartlett’s BSc Architecture degree programme aims to develop a creative, diverse and rigorous approach to architecture and design from the outset. Year 1 is centred on the design studio and is taught to the year as a whole. Students observe, draw, model and design, based in the School’s design studios and workshop from the first week onwards. The main intention is to explore ‘ways of seeing’; understanding and interpreting objects/events/places and learning to look beyond the visible into the unseen and ‘absurd’ qualities of things. In this way, a place can also be seen as something with its own identity, which each student can personally interpret. The importance of ‘character’ and personality is emphasised throughout the design process whether it concerns analysis, site interpretation or architectural vision. A number of recording techniques are used as a way of clarifying the subject rather than as purely graphic representation. Through being aware of the possibilities and limitations of various techniques, each student learns to express and then develop critically and appropriately, through their own intuition, an idea for an architectural proposition. This year Sir John Soane was at the centre of all projects. Starting with a collected object the year completed his house in Ealing, Pitzhanger Manor, with a series of furniture interventions. After a mapping project in Athens each students developed an individual building proposal along a route stretching from Broadway Market and Columbia Flower Market to Brick Lane.
