520 8 ^aWhile fundamentally a design discipline, architecturaleducation requires an element of history and theory, grouped under the term ^'research^'. However, many students struggle with this part of their course. This practical handbook provides the necessary grounding in this subject,addressing essential questions about what research in architecture can be. The first part of the book is a general guide to the fundamentals of how to do research, from assembling a literature review to conducting an interview. The second section presents a selection of casestudies dealing with such topics as environmental psychology, the politics of space, ethnographic research and mapping |
