What it covers
This unit provides opportunities for you to extend emerging design challenges and contexts in a vertically integrated, semester-long studio project. It increases the emphasis on design as a process of investigation, critical observation, and experimentation, encompassing a range of complex issues inherent in the production of architecture including: material, structure, program, site, history and representation. Studies in the unit will strengthen a focus on developing design as a visual language and process of cultural production, as well as a set of tools and practices that support engagement with broader communities. You will develop an approach that responds to a detailed understanding of community and context, and addresses defined connections to a range of emerging social, political, and environmental challenges.
