Systems Approach in Devising Research Perimeter
1. Devise methods for immersing in the chosen urban condition. 2. Devise ways of understanding the structure of the urban condition. 3. Identify variables that make up and influence the urban condition. 4. Investigate the relationship between the urban condition and the city’s fabric. 5. Choose a moment within the urban condition and formulate an understanding of the relationship
between physical and social structures. 6. Develop strategies for creating interactive relationships between physical and social structures. 7. Devise appropriate methods of representation and communication. 8. Define the perimeter and analyze the structure of this urban territory. 9. Investigate the variables that make up this urban territory. 10. Investigate different ways of transforming it into a potential territory of action for an urban hub. 11. Devise appropriate methods of representation and communication. 12. Prepare preliminary proposals for a direct hub at the architectural scale and an urban hub at the urban
scale.
STRATEGIC OPERATIONS
1. Explore the potential of the designed direct hub as an urban component and explore its relationship to rule-based urban systems.
2. Reassess the territory of action as a potential urban hub. 3. Identify and make use of relevant agents and initiatives. 4. Define and design the direct role of the urban hub by producing design simulations and other strategic
representations of the idea. 5. Define the relationship between the proposal for the urban hub and the city's infrastructure, fabric and
rule-based systems. 6. Speculate on the interrelationship between the three hubs: the situation, the direct hub and the urban
hub. 7. Finalize the strategy for the urban hub, model and represent its spatial configuration. 8. Finalize the rule-based systems required to procure and support the urban hub and devise appropriate
methods of representation and communication. 9. Compile the whole process as a design thesis.
