Architectural design workshop is a high impact experience intended for creative, motivated students. East Asian Architectural Design Camp, annual summer architectural design education program, have been organised by Faculty of Architecture of Miryang National University in Korea since 1996. Design Camp students from many counturies work with School of Architecture faculty on projects from each of the nations, Korea, Japan and China. Students may be asked to design creative architecture, develop creative idea and experiment with architectural space. In addition to studio projects, they attend lectures from highly respected design professionals such as professors, architectural designers and landscape architects.
The first design camp program was helded in 1996 at Gyeongju City. Therefore, Design camp of next year should declare the history of a decade. Design Camp of 2005, the 10th anniversary program, has very special meanings. We will prepare the lectures of famous architects and exhibition of their projects with the design workshop for design camp on next year. I am confident that 2005 design camp will bring all of us deeper understandings, a reinvigorated thinking of East Asian architecture, and many fond memories. We expect you and your students should have deep interest about design camp 2005. Thank you!
