  • ARCH 694: Gender, Architecture & Space

    3.00 Credits
    Rice University

    This course investigates the significance of gender and sexuality in the production, use, and representation of architectural and urban spaces: within the historiography of architectural and urban history; and in determining spatial justice - how access to space based on gender and sexuality advances or erodes human and civil rights. For each lecture, Graduate Students will be assigned additional readings. They will write an annotated bibliography of all these readings to be turned in at the end of the semester. We will meet for an additional every two or three weeks to discuss interpretive and methodological problems and ideas associated with the readings. Graduate Students will be expected to complete all the requirements of the class in addition to writing a substantial research paper due at the end of the semester.

  • ARCH 696: Rethinking Suburban Living

    3.00 Credits
    Rice University

    A major portion of urbanized America is in areas loosely referred to as sprawl. here the subdivision is the dominant living unit. Although New Urbanism has provided adjustments to this common model, few truly innovative models of suburban living exist. The reason for this conservatism is manifold. This seminar will challenge the status quo through a series of unusual strategies, motivated by a series of assumptions drawn from the French philosopher Alain Badiou's "The Century" - a highly polmical view of the 20th century. Registration limited to graduate and 5th year Architecture students.

  • ARCH 697: Building Envelope Systems

    3.00 Credits
    Rice University

    This seminar will be divided into two parts. It will begin with an overview of the historical evolution of the building envelope. This will include both an examination of existing construction technology and the natural forces that these surfaces must mitigate, including methods of modeling such as sun-shading, lateral forces, etc. The emphasis, however, will be on investigating contemporary developments in the design of building envelopes in both a technical and formal sense. These technologies will include: new cladding materials and coatings such as photo-reactive paint and electrochromatic glass, fiber concrete; new curtain wall technology including stress skin; rain screen wall systems; green walls, green roofs, photovoltaics and water harvesting systems.

  • ARCH 698: Urban Forms Of Plurality

    3.00 Credits
    Rice University

    This seminar examines the urban forms of pluralism and indeterminacy that emerged during late Modernism with the breakdown of CIAM and was positioned through the projects of the 'megastructure,' 'omnibuilding' and 'pod' in the postwar period. Exploring the link between this 'almost project' that was interrupted during the 1970s and 80s., the seminar explores recent analogous trajectories within systems of infrastructure, landscape and ecology in providing a platform for the continued project of plurality. Unpacked through an examination of theoretical texts and projects by Hannah Arendt, Buckminster Fuller, Cedric Price, Yona Friedman, Archigram, Archizoom, Superstudio, OMA, Stan Allen, Keller Easterling and Konstantinos Doxiadis amongst others, it positions a new role and relevancy for the architect who is confronted with an increasingly indeterminate globe and contingent city.
