Dummies is a learning project. It arises from the approach adopted by the first course of Architectural Design at ETSAV, UPC. We put into crisis the self-experience of the students as inhabitants using activity and action as a methodology to recognise and produce space. Students use drawing and modelling as mediation tools between the problem and the solution to address the needs of habitability. The exercise focuses on stimulating the eye to understand architecture from its performance and developing the students' ability to observe, perceive, reveal, manipulate, transform and shape space.
