Synopsis:

The course covers several basic thematic areas, especially an introduction to urban composition as a creative synthesis of all components of an urban work, expressed in the composition of spaces and materials, an introduction to rural urbanism, including landscape contexts and some contemporary problems of urbanism, and selected current issues of contemporary urbanism. The individual topics are interpreted in the necessary historical context, insofar as it is relevant to the current state of the subject. The exercises, among other things, test the knowledge from the lectures and apply the urban planning knowledge acquired so far (proposal based on the knowledge from Urbanism 1).

Requirements:

Lectures are not compulsory. Exercises have compulsory attendance. For credit, which is a condition for access to the exam, it is necessary to meet the basic attendance, to show activity in the semester (joint work in exercises, presentations, walk-out), to meet the conditions specified at the beginning of the semester in Moodle. The exam is written and oral. Bonus points earned during the semester for tests in lectures and for activity in exercises are included in the classification.

Study Objective:

The aim of the study is to understand the formation and perception of urban space, the logic of its composition, various aspects of its multisensory perception and evaluation, including the introduction of various analytical methods. Furthermore, the aim of the course is to present the specifics of rural urbanism with its values, distinctive features and different approaches to planning and development.
