This course investigates the feasibility of an architectural project, focusing on financial, cost, and design considerations. Its primary objective is twofold: to provide students with quantitative skills for analyzing the economic implications of their design decisions and to foster development of a critical perspective in making these decisions. The need for economic analysis to develop concurrently with design is emphasized throughout the course. Topics include site selection, building design, construction cost estimation, and real estate finance.
