Samenvatting
The best graduation projects from TU/e in architecture and urbanism continue to confront pressing societal issues by blurring the disciplinary boundaries of architecture and urbanism.
The tensions between the individual and community, between digital and physical, are some of the structuring issues pervading this this year’s selection of the TU/e’s best graduation projects. While approaching these questions from multiple perspectives, all these projects engage with these tensions and surrounding issues from both ends of the design spectrum. If, on the one hand, these projects directly reconsider the fundamentals of architecture and urbanism, on the other hand, they explore their ever-shifting borders.
While dealing with a diversity of themes and goals—from societal inclusion to increased livability—these projects share the ambition (and continue the tradition at the TU/e) of questioning the agency of architecture and urbanism to redress wrongs and improve our everyday lives. Through these projects, architecture and urbanism transgress common expectations and boldly innovate to, effectively, show a way forward, reflecting on current conditions and imagining possible futures. Ultimately, each and every graduate shows how, through their work, they have begun a process of reflection and discussion that is bound to continue throughout their professional career.
