ARCH-DES 601 Graduate Design Studio IV 6 credits Instructors: Lugosch, Miller Pollin, Schreiber Course Description: The intentions of the studio are to build on areas of inquiry pursued in earlier studios, adding a layer of study that explores the potential for materials and construction to enrich, embody, and communicate the meanings of space, form, and program. The focus is integrated sustainable systems. Learning Objectives: Graduate Design IV is a special topics studio.. Iteration in drawing, modeling and diagramming will be emphasized as a tool to pursue this goal. Multi-scalar thinking will be stressed to expand the range of scales and level of detail with which students design. Relevant codes will be studied and applied. Precedents and readings will be reviewed critically. Course Requirements: The studio will consist of projects of varying lengths designed to take students through architectural problems of differing scales. The projects will be developed through making drawings, models, photographs, and presentation boards with some writing. Research assignments and reading are integral to the studio work. Graphic and verbal presentation should be both expressive and precise. The students will be accountable for producing a building that draws together concerns for: • sensitive site treatment (both experientially and environmentally) • a critical theoretical position about architectural design and its broader cultural role • an awareness of the building’s role in enhancing and nurturing the everyday life and functions that occur within it • creation of sophisticated architectural form • use of appropriate experiential character to reinforce moods and feelings • responsible use of material resources, at best in a sustainable sense • sensitive reaction to climatic conditions • clear definition of structural, technical and circulation systems • awareness of safety and regulatory compliance • architecture which makes a clear contribution to its culture and the future Text: Prerequisite: ARCH-DES 600 24
ARCH-DES 602 Graduate Design Studio V 6 credits Instructors: Luarasi, Lugosch, Miller Pollin, Mann, Krupczynski Course Description: This studio is advanced and comprehensive in all the aspects and complexities that comprise contemporary architectural practice today. It is also integrative in integrating both these aspects and the various degrees of design knowledge and intelligence you have acquired so far in your design studio development. Learning Objectives: This studio will focus on the notion of information based design and the design of diagram/ideogram as an informational placeholder and generative form-finding tool. Research: Research will be an imminent attribute of this studio. It will consist of reading specific texts, precedent studies and gathering informational data. However, this studio will focus on a particular form of research, that is, on Design as a form of research. The primary goal of this form of research is not simply to gather data, but rather design this gathering and interpolate/manipulate the data in order to create a design intelligence that could and should be used in the architectural design. In other words the goal of Design as a Form of Research is to set the cognition forth, to release it, initiate it, and let it happen…. Evidently there is a strong affinity between this form of research and the aspect of analysis and representation. Site/Context/Program/Typologies: Specific urban/rural sites/landscapes will be given to the students. However, each student will approach the questions of context, program and typology vis-à-vis his/her design research. The design research phase will lead each student choose a context, program and typology that will be materialized into a building form. Building systems/Tectonics/Fabrication Strategies/Prototyping: The studio will address the aspects of materiality, building systems, tectonics, fabrication, circulation, egress circulation system, life safety protocols and handicapped accessibility. Sustainability: This studio will engage with the practices of sustainability in architecture today. However the challenge will be to see the notion of sustainability not only as a technical aspect of architectural design, but an organizational, cultural and aesthetic one as well. Course Requirements: The first part of the course will include diagramming and mapping exercises that may operate geologically, biologically or linguistically. Whether they are analogue or digital, they should operate parametrically, capable of producing not a single result, but series, repetition, multiplicity and variation. Simultaneously, students will work with a series of precedent studies of contemporary ideas and typologies. This phase will lead to the formulation of a particular context, program and typology in a particular site. The second part of the studio will consist in building design and development.
