Description and Table of Contents
Description
Over the past four years students of the AA's Intermediate Unit 2 have designed and built a series of experimental pavilions. Structured to follow a year in the life of the unit, this book presents the processes of the pavilions' design and production, from concept ideas to workshop fabrication. Essays by the unit's tutors, Charles Walker and Martin Self, explain the ambitions and pedagogic basis of the programme, rooted in the idea of experiential learning. The educational validity of this innovative design-build programme and its architectural output is explored through the voices of students, tutors and anonymous critics.
