Abstract Five different design project competitions focused on heat transfer processes are presented. The projects are design, build, test, and report in nature. These elements are described within the paper for each project. A semester ending design competition is held where the student teams present their devices and their performance is evaluated.

Current architecture studios are missing an important phase in the education process, which is constructing the students’ conceptual ideas on a real physical scale. The design-build approach enables the students to test their ideas, theories, material selection, construction methods, environmental constraints, simulation results, level of space functionality and other important aspects when used by real target clients in an existing context. This paper aims to highlight the importance of using the design-build method through discussing a design project case study carried out by the Masters of Architecture design programme students at Beirut Arab University, who have built prototype units for refugees on a 1:1 scale.
