Description
TERRAFORMING ?the hypothetical process of deliberately modifying an atmosphere,
temperature, surface topography or ecology in order to make it hospitable to new conditions-
As the construction of Data Centers, Indoor Farming Complexes and Fulfillment Centers
advances at a pace of 1milllion square ft /day in the US alone, an implicit terraforming process
reshapes the crust of our planet. The course will explore the role of innovative architectural
components and assemblies in dealing with large-scale footprint structures and managing the
velocity of environmental transformation.
