Learning outcomes:

- To familiarize the students with 1/1000 and 1/2000 scale as well as with the teamwork, specific to complex organization of a larger area.
- To train students so that they could solve specific problems of a residential zone with low height dwellings (parcelling for one-family houses and groups of apartment buildings).
- To insert a designed image (the required project of the organization of a residential zone) into a set of regulations specific to urban plans (provided in the theme).
- To acquire the ways of intentional creation of a diversified and particularized urban framework by adjusting some typologies of dwelling and siting to the conditions of a given terrain.
- To teach the design skills, seen as a means to reconcile the due respect towards private property and the due respect towards the community, and at the same time, as one between the intervention efficiency reflected in many apartments/ha and the dwelling comfort expressed in the existence of necessary collective equipments, green zones, etc. (both in the way the terrains are used and the overall composition is organized).

Content:
