Introduction
BA (Hons) Architecture
Architecture is always political – it is first and foremost about people and our interaction with the world around us. BA Architecture at Central Saint Martins is committed to socially engaged practice. It promotes direct engagement with real-world social, cultural and political conditions in the contemporary urban landscape. Buildings are only one way in which we intervene in the built environment. The space of the city is charged and shaped through the interplay of multiple factors and tensions. Engaging with these complex dynamics requires innovative design approaches. These often encompass alternative forms of space-making. The course is underpinned by the idea that the human environment is alive with agency; as we shape our environment, our environment shapes us.
