Fall 2010 52 The majority of the semester will be focused on an extensive site condition between Clayton Road and Highway 64/40, extending both east and west of Skinker Boulevard. Programmatic possibilities include a hotel, manufacturing, and elderly housing. While everyone will be working in the same precinct not everyone will be working with precisely the same site and program. To a certain extent these may be advanced and adjusted as made possible by the spatial geometry. After arriving at a tentative spatial framework for the project there will be a two week interlude to study some of the same ideas at a much smaller scale and simpler situation. We will work about 45 miles south of the school in and near Washington State Park, in the vicinity of the largest collection of Native American petroglyphs in Missouri, creating both a protection and public engagement of these carvings. Then returning to the primary project with new information about the capacity of the construct at minor scales, and with the perspective offered by some time away, we will reexamine the initial proposal, make adjustments and then proceed to develop the project. With the intention of further advancing new social relationships there will be opportunities and negotiations between sub-sites, adjacent projects, and competing spatial constructs.
Dean’s Letter Architecture, Washington University in St. Louis 53 ARCH 500/600 ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN V-VI Ken Tracy, Visiting Assistant Professor JAKARTA: CONSTRAINING DICHOTOMIES This studio will seek to balance these seemingly irreconcilable dichotomies: Digital vs Analog Labor vs Management Local vs Foreign Iconic vs Urban Through research, physical models and finally through a set of discussions with visitors students will develop a stance on each set of issues. This process will allow us to question but also have confidence in our position. This design of your argument for the project will allow you to acknowledge the context in an integral way. The primary dichotomy we will investigate is the use of manual, analog skills versus digital processes in architecture. Students will question the use of both digital and analog tools and negotiate a balance between them. Prototyping and research will be used to close the gap between manual processes and digital tools. Through these investigations we will look at the role the hand plays in both design and building production. Another challenge in these step will be to formulate a stance on labor vs management. Urban issues and local identity will also shape these experiments. The context for this investigation will be Jakarta, Indonesia. The fourth largest country in the world behind the United States. Indonesia boasts a rich layering of cultures. Paramount to Indonesia’s national identity is the hand labored crafts for which it is famous. Batik, carpentry, stone carving and textiles are all important production and artisan industries in Java and on other islands. Indonesia is one of the few places on earth where such a large population of craftspeople still thrive. Jakarta is its capital city and with in Jakarta we will be looking at a site along the Cideng River. The site is owned by an Indonesian Steel factory and there is currently a plan to develop the site. The proposals will be presented to the owners for comment. The program will be a 5 to 8 story office building with a residence and parking.
