The 2015-16 brief for the Architectural Association's Diploma Unit 14 is now online. The Unit is led by Pier Vittorio Aureli, author of our The Marriage of Reason and Squalor, and Square's own head Maria S. Giudici. This year the unit will broaden their horizon: while the final project will be resolved at the scale of architecture, the students are challenged to rethink landscape, infrastructure and logistics as part of their "radical settlements". Beyond the dichotomy between form and function, morphology and typology, come take part in an experiment on new forms of political imagination that can start from the design of a bed - and end up in a 100x100 km analogical map of a territory. Check out the pdf brief on their website www.diploma14.com.
