Week 12 Studio: Closing crit

The last studio — a survey of doors beyond the course's own set, and a working session on the field guide

17 May 2027

Before the session#

Read the week 12 lecture and bring a rough draft of your field guide’s categories, even if the worked examples aren’t finished yet.

In the session#

The last lecture widens the lens past this semester’s own doors; this closing crit spends the studio testing whether each person’s draft typology survives that wider view. Petra runs the room the same way as week 1’s first door session, but backwards: instead of building shared vocabulary from scratch, the studio pressure-tests whether everyone’s own categories actually generalise, including onto a door nobody in the course has audited.

Afterwards#

Nothing submitted here. The field guide itself is due at the end of the teaching period, worth 30% of the course — the last of the four assessments.
