If this subject is as important aswe discuss it here today, is this amagical wand or one shoe fit allsize solution?

What are the limitations?

Why should we study economics &sociology?

Importance and relevance ofSociology and economics toArchitecture and ParticularlyArchitectural Design?

How is thissubject going tohelp you and atwhat levels?

Principles of socialresearch,literature review,data collectionmethods like,Questioners,interviews and casestudy. Classificationand analysis ofdata.

Research methods help when .

At design studio level. At Theses Level. In architectural practice

and research

Functioning of society, its culture and influence on design.

Architectural Research? Example of Title slide,Myth one: Architecture is ArchitectureMyth two: Architecture is not ArchitectureMyth Three: Building a building is research.

Architecture Process. Architecture Product. Architecture Performance.

Functioning of society, its culture and influence on design.

Society evolves constantly under variousinfluences (especially consumerism) hence anarchitect needs to understand the needs of thesociety and propose a new building typologythough architectural design. Example NithyaGram, at Bangalore and shopping malls, gatedcommunities in general across the globe.

Helps in framing the design Problem (theses) orstudio exercise.

POE studies which can be also called casestudies.

Stone not used only for strength but because of economic problems and also reacting to the context. (Labor Intensive.)

Due to the limitations in available materials and construction methods, the building is built of bricks and rendered in white-painted plaster. As steel was unavailable, Koenigsberger had to develop an alternative solution for the roof construction . He employed timber trusses in various spans and heights, which are responsible for the sloping form of the roof. The longest truss is circa 3.3m high. Like the window frames and doors, the parabolic ceiling suspended from the timber roof construction was made of teak, a local material that was evidently not affected by wartime shortages.
