6.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ARCH404 with a grade of C (2.0) or better. For Master of Architecture majors only. Architectural design studio with emphasis on building and facade typologies, the development of architectural promenade and sequence, public and/or civic infill buildings dependent upon the architectural promenade, and urban housing types of varying densities. The architect's obligations to urban context are explored in many dimensions including historical, typological, and physical. Offered spring only.
-
6.00 Credits
Prerequisite: ARCH405 with a grade of C (2.0) or better. For Master of Architecture majors only. Investigations into the relationship between the man-made and the natural world including introductory issues of assembly and material value. Design of the site and the building are combined into an integral process delimiting and probing the boundaries of each and exploring their reciprocal relationship. The architect's obligations to the natural and urban contexts are explored in many dimensions including historical, typological, environmental, and physical.
