The paper aims to define a universal formula for the profession of architecture, expressed through student activities and experiments, as a collective and interdisciplinary profession resulting from the integration of broadly understood design tools, based on an understanding of contemporary phenomena and their integration into the landscape. In the face of drastic changes in the world (social, environmental), deepening the relationship between design on a spatial scale and design on an object scale increases the creative possibilities for both professions. It defines new skills that are responsive and versatile in relation to contemporary needs. The method of teaching design during studies should be based on a process involving countless experiments, attempts to prove and implement ideas that may even be somewhat utopian, as this is a time when one is not yet burdened with responsibility. Teaching students - involves redefining established concepts, and this is what this work will primarily focus on. It requires explaining and presenting familiar issues repeatedly, thus allowing for the discovery of new phenomena and possibilities. Confronting a fresh perspective on architecture, one that is not yet subject to any mannerisms, helps avoid clichés. A system of cooperation and collaboration, used across various scales, demonstrates how architectural and design practices combine. This combination creates a new design method as the two professions merge.
