This programme focuses on the application of design innovation methodologies within an environmental context. Our rapidly changing world requires a highly responsive and adaptable approach to spatial design, acting at many different scales, for various locations, and with consideration for diverse human and non-human stakeholders.

Hyper-local and place-based projects explore both the local and global impact of human culture, challenging previous ways of thinking and provoking relevant material interventions. Proposals search for the aesthetic dimension to our actions, whether temporary or permanent, upending conventional notions of beauty.Additionally, new technologies constantly alter how we experience a place. Our students are encouraged to question current perceptions of spatial context and envision new ways of experiencing and interacting with our world.
