Description
This design studio requires students to think of architecture from an “outside-in” approach, focusing on form and composition. Proportion, balance, rhythm, and dynamics are emphasized as compositional elements of spatial design and are used as tools of functional accommodation. Three-dimensional models are used as means of design, encouraging students to think spatially. Questions of meaning, message and symbolism are tackled and applied, as ways of developing ideas for architectural form and space-making. Advanced and digital presentation techniques are used.
