Description

DS1100 | 1GA studio | Fundamental Architecture 1:

The first studio in a sequence of four foundation studios, this course introduces the student to fundamental issues of architecture. Through the study of the in?terrelationship of geometry, form, tectonics, and materiality, students are asked to continually develop and reconsider strategies for the production of architec?ture. The studio aims to endow students with a range of fundamental working methodologies. Through generative drawing, iterative material studies, gener?ative modeling, descriptive drawing and analytical mapping and diagramming, students are expected to develop an intellectual framework as well as produc?tive techniques for the development of spatial organizations, architectural forms and structural systems.
