African New Towns
An adaptive, principle-based planning approach
2020 || Paperback || Rachel Keeton || TU Delft Open
Since the economic shifts of the 1990s, New Towns have become an increasingly popular approach to urban development across the African continent. While New Towns are not a new development model, their contemporary materialisation often targets middle- and high-income buyers, leaving no space for low-income residents.

Anchoring the design process
A framework to make the designerly way of thinking explicit in architectural design education
2020 || Paperback || Elise van Dooren || TU Delft Open
This thesis proposes a framework to address the design process in design education. Building upon the assumption that teachers, being professional designers, do not discuss the design process in the architectural design studio and do not have a vocabulary to do so, five generic elements or anchor points are defined which represent the basic design skills. The validity of the framework and the assumption is tested respectively in interviews with a variety of designers and in observations of di...

Developing and Testing a Support Tool for Inhabitants and Practitioners in Mt-Elgon, Kenya
2020 || Paperback || Michiel Smits || TU Delft Open

Multiple case studies on Mt. Elgon proved that inhabitants have a significantly higher self-reliance level, comparing traditional to modern housing. To study this phenomenon in practice and to articulate suitable design support the Design Research Methodology was chosen. The research...

Book of Abstracts
2020 || Paperback || Roberto Cavallo e.a. || TU Delft Open

The EAAE Annual Conference of 2019 is titled ‘The Hidden School’, aiming to discuss an architecture school’s true character, the substance and the quality of architectural education in the broadest sense, and that which is beyond the stated curricula, yet — whether concretely manifested or subliminally perceived — embodies the culture of the school.
The conference, hosted in 2019 by the Faculty of Architecture in Zagre...
