This architecure will be designed in a non-contextualised lot, whose characteristics will be defined by the teacher and will constitute the application of concepts and notions settled in the first part of the teaching.
In particular, the architecture to be designed is a residence on the lake for the artist and designer Bruno Munari.
The residence will have a total area of about 245 square meters and must rise on a slightly steep lot of dimensions of 20 x 40 meters.

The project will be developed in the classroom through a laboratory seminar activity, accompanied by illustrative lessons of canonical examples of architecture considered pertinent to the project work.Attendance
Attendance at the course is mandatory for 75%Type of evaluation
The exam will take into account the work carried out throughout the laboratory: reading exercises, composition exercises and papers related to the single-family residence project teacher profile teaching materials
The contents of the course are proposed and verified through frontal lessons, exercises, educational visits, individual and collective reviews. The final exam evaluation takes into account all the activities of the student during the year, the quality of the final project is obviously crucial in the award of the vote itself. All work is done by hand, it is not allowed to use C.a.d.
The educational sequence is based on a method of teaching the architectural composition based on the following steps:
- Elaboration of an "architectural concept" using a model, inspired by a relative lesson in which architectural concepts at the base of illustrious works in the field of architecture and contemporary art are showed and explained.
- Proposing a "way of living" through an image, an author's photograph or a work of art that clearly expresses this content.
- Elaboration of a "settlement principle" that is aware of typological choices related to the residential theme, in strong symbiosis with the context in which the project is elaborated, thus making clear choices in relation to the soil and to the other natural elements of the place.
- A conscious choice of a "constructive system" in relation to the previous elaborations, with particular attention to the role of the structural system to be adopted: masonry or system of linear elements, and its relation to non-bearing elements, such as internal infill panels and partitions. This passage also defines the materials the project is equipped with and with which the language of architecture is defined.
- Elaboration of a "correct representation" of the project in orthogonal projections, consistent with canonical graphic codes but also with the design choices adopted.

Programme
In the second semester, the engagement is 100 hours and addresses the design theme of a residence for five artists, which proposes a specific dwelling for this small temporary community, the period in the residence is six months. The project area is an agricultural land in the upper Lazio, near the small village of Chia in the province of Viterbo, near some important historic and natural presences. The aim is to create a storytelling and references around the project theme so that the student can elaborate a specific proposal as a result of his suggestions rather than a neutral and impersonal solution. This is in the belief that learning is greater if accompanied by a personal and interpretative working idea.The contents of the course are proposed and verified through frontal lessons, exercises, educational visits, individual and collective reviews. The final exam evaluation takes into account all the activities of the student during the year, the quality of the final project is obviously crucial in the award of the vote itself.

Programme
The lectures of the second semester will be dedicated to the themes connected with the development of the project to stimulate to reflections and critical choices: the single family home with recurring aspects and historical antecedents; the characteristics of the place and the possible influences on the project; the relationship between sun and architecture; the relationship with the ground; the relationship between spatial structure and load-bearing structure. The lessons will be alternated with moments of collective and individual discussion on the project.Core Documentation

The semester is dedicated to the development of design exercise, a single-family house of about 250 square meters. The moments of review of the project will be alternated with supplementary lessons functional to guide the design process. The reviews of the project work will take place on the platform Teams (Team Laboratorio 1C - code cw2di7s) and on the website http://www.lab-pro.org/milenafarina/ The videos of the lessons will be uploaded to the One Drive folder. The link will be sent by email to the students.Attendance
compulsory attendance for at least 75% of the hoursType of evaluation
The final exam consists in the discussione of the single-family house project, through the presentation of a series of drawings (plan in scale 1:200, floorplans and sections 1: 100, sections 1:50, axonometric and perspective views) and a model 1:100. A week before the exam session, the students will upload pictures and / or scans of the drawings and the model in a shared folder on One Drive, already used during the semester. The day of the exam session the discussion of the project will take place remotely through the Teams platform, in the Laboratory channel used for the reviews of projects during the semester, at the presence of teaching collaborators and of the students who want to attend. During the discussion the student will have the opportunity to share the screen to comment on the works and to show the model through the webcam.
