Syllabus
  • Typology is the taxonomic classification of (usually physical) characteristics commonly found in buildings and urban places, according to their association with different categories, such as intensity of development (from natural or rural to highly urban), degrees of formality, and school of thought (for example, modernist or traditional). Individual characteristics form patterns. Patterns relate elements hierarchically across physical scales (from small details to large systems). We will discuss all the typological cases and analyse them (typological research). The norms and rules of designing should follow the thesis of St. Augustin of Hippo: “unity in necessary things; liberty in doubtful things; charity in all things”.
