Territory as Architecture [Intensive workshop]

Territory as Architecture [Intensive workshop]

The course introduces essential concepts and tools for mapping cities and territories. In the first part of the workshop, students will focus on hand-drawing techniques by creating detailed maps of Barcelona, learning cartographic principles at the scale of the whole city. This hands-on approach enhances their understanding of spatial relationships and graphic elements in map-making.

In the second part, students will map Mediterranean cities and territories using advanced GIS technology. They will gain proficiency in software like QGIS to analyze spatial data. By combining hand-drawing skills with GIS technology, students will produce precise, informative, and visually compelling maps, preparing them for diverse mapping challenges in urban and territorial design and studies.
