Description
DS1120 | 2GA studio | Architecture?s Integration:
The first term in the second year of the core M.Arch 1 sequence builds upon the awareness of the discipline and knowledge of architectural production by focusing on issues of Comprehensive Design. The studio is structured to hone each student?s awareness of the complex and layered issues involved in an architectural problem. Elemental spatial constructs and organizational systems are seen as resulting from and reacting to forces of site, context and territory. These influences are considered physical and virtual, permanent and ephemeral, situational and circumstantial. Qualities of site, situation and environment, as well as cultural contexts, are considered as potential tools with which to challenge conventional approaches to architectural design.
