In the first investigation, urban form will be investigated as mass and void in several different scales and further explored in how interfaces them in-between work. This is both from a ‘typological’ sense, and from a ‘sculptural’ sense – that is: on one hand, how is urbanity composed of pieces, and what do these pieces become when combined together, and on the other hand, how is urban form sculpted on a larger scale by landscape and built mass. This will include developing a kind of typological thinking – being able to abstract architecture and buildings to different types that carry important social and formal content – and larger scale landscape analysis.
