Özet

Bacon has famously stated, "knowledge itself is power.", This study investigates how power is invited into the design studio, underlining the importance of inter-disciplinary cooperation as the source of creative activity and innovation in architectural education. Using seminars that feed the cognitive aspects of design and the relevant applications in support, a design studio set-up undertaken with interdisciplinary contributions was realised. Shared knowledge from seminars on engineering, landscaping, interior architecture and sculpture were transformed in accordance with their respective fields by architecture students and then re-constructed using constructivist learning to fit their respective purposes.
