Matter of Scale – graduation project by TU Delft students in Tallinn

We invite all architecture and urbanism students to join on Monday, November 17, at 18:00, in EKA auditorium A101, to the presentation of TU Delft students work in the city of Tallinn, which is going on now for the third consecutive year. Professor Klaske Havik will give an overview of earlier projects, as this year’s students during the ongoing two weeks are  researching the city’s diverse urban spaces and developing their own design briefs based on these studies.

The graduation studio ‘A Matter of Scale’ examines the Estonian capital Tallinn, where the human scale is constantly challenged by buildings and urban plans of very different sizes. Layers of Hanseatic, Soviet, and contemporary market-driven developments coexist as much as they clash in Tallinn, conditioned as they are by the city’s distinct natural and cultural conditions.

The graduation studio is the chair of Methods of Analysis and Imagination is led by Klaske Havik (Prof.Dr.Ir.), Jorge Mejía Hernández (Dr.Ir.), Pierre Jennen (Ir.), and Freek Speksnijder (Ir.).
