Articulation of Bruno Latour's Down to Earth concepts in my design-Rethinking school of Design an...

1. Politics

1.1. 1) Elitism: Is architecture seen as a more 'elite' or 'prestigious' course of study amongst built environment discipline

1.1.1. Blurring the hierachy between different disciplines of built evironment

1.1.1.1. Architectural Spaces that complements the pedagogy

1.1.1.1.1. Design studios arranged in the programmatic sequence of design workflow, separated not by walls but made distinct by interconnected stages of the design process; to be shared

2. 2) Movement; Shift in architectural education

2.1. Technological Advancements

2.1.1. Educational / Professional Refugees

2.1.1.1. Contradiction

2.1.1.1.1. While the progress of technology may further improve workflows of design, designers of the future may have a vastly different jobscope or not have a role to play anymore with machine learning technology being able to develop design solutions much faster and much more quantity compared to the trial and error method of design.

2.1.2. Reliance on AI for generative architecture

2.2. Increasingly sub-specialization in fields

2.2.1. More seemingly lose sight of design as a field in whole when working on specific skillsets of design such as BIM or Computation.

3. 3) Globalisation and Inter-connectiveness

3.1. Could INTERDISCIPLINARY LEARNING THROUGH EXPERIMENTATION be the catalyst for synthesis?

3.2. Synthesis

3.2.1. Workflow in the built environment sector is connected via multi-disciplinary connection

3.2.1.1. Not being translated well in built environment education due to segregation of teaching courses;

3.2.2. Design to accommodate combine workspaces to foster common baseline education for built environment

3.2.2.1. From the Ideology of

3.2.2.1.1. Baushaus

3.3. Connection to public realm / site

3.3.1. Privatised usage of building during school terms but inactive during vacations

3.3.1.1. How can the public also utilise the school during inactive seasons?

3.3.1.1.1. Malleable spaces that would open up more publicly during lull period but also function as private spaces for conducive engagements during school semesters Eg. exhibition, Resource library, Retail
