| Seminars are focused on the composition of architecture, which will be analyzed through the basic ordering principles, pattern making process and application of the theoretical concepts. The selected basic composition principles will be studied through examples typical for a particular historical period. Students may also analyze an urban space. The aim of the course is to be able to understand the multilayered role of geometry, basic ordering compositional principles and theory of form in connection with architectural and urban design. The seminar will focus on some patterns of composition, which are commonly used and have many qualities, for which they have been frequently and repeatedly used. Some of these patterns have an obvious historical and cultural background that not only architects but also engineers will be able to understand. The methods taught can help especially the students of architecture to develop their own design skills. The seminar is also intended to make students familiar with the architecture of Prague; the given compositional categories will be practised on the examples that can be studied in situ. |
