PROJECT 3
Comparative Analysis Essay
Objective:
1. To provide critical perspectives on key issues within the contemporary discourse of architecture, through integration of case-studies and theoretical studies.
2. To enhance the understanding of the complexity of architecture and the ability to undertake independent research
Part 2 of the project requires students to write a comparative analysis essay based on findings from case study (Part 1) and local site research (Design Studio). Students are to examine similarities and dissimilarities based on the patterns of social activities, types of ‘contact points’. And the varying degrees of contact intensity between the two cities.
A comparative analysis essay is a commonly used type of writing assignment where students are require to critically analyze any two subjects, finding and pointing out their similarities and/or dissimilarities. Students are expected to research for information from publications, internet and other relevant sources. For local site, students are expected to conduct own site observation (Studio).
Essay is to be supported with images and diagrams relevant to support and interpret analysis of the site and its qualities.
