Abstract

The Tools of the Architect exhibition is an assembly of a small selection of projects, showing the collective interests and ambitions from the char of Methods & Analysis. All of these projects were developed by students between 2014 and 2017, in courses offered by the chair at the Bachelors and Masters levels of education.

The shown projects are based on two premises representing how the chair of Methods and Analysis addresses architecture and the built environment in two interrelated ways. On the one hand by studying and testing the tools and procedures, the methods that have been, are being, or can be used by architects in the production of the built environment. On the other hand by studying parts of that built environment critically or systematically, analysing them, in order to understand some of the components, logics, and processes that could further inform them.
