Architecture Studio I: Architectural Design Methods

Catalog description

Building on the introductory Space and Representation studio, it strengthens representational fluency and the translation of conceptual ideas into coherent architectural proposals.Taken concurrently with ARC 2020, the studio integrates building and site, grounding design decisions in environmental and contextual awareness. Students refine skills in sketching, diagramming, orthographic drawing, perspective, and physical model-making. Through projects of controlled complexity, they internalize analysis, concept development, critique, and refinement as core architectural methods.
