This studio-as-book is not predicated on a fixed research agenda identified with a design studio’s performative practice or a theory of architecture. MArch 2 Studio DS11 has rather been conceived as a self-critical framework, so this book presents the work of the studio from a critical perspective towards ‘design research’. At its core is a development of a series of urban projects over an eight-year period. The emphasis is focused on the ‘after-life’ of the ‘design-studio’, a subject explored by ex-students’ reflections on the relationship between studio-based education and their subsequent experience. Resisting the view of architectural design produced as a model practice, it is the longer-term effect of a studio education and its embodied research that informs this book.
