REGIONALISM, CREATIVITY, AND DESIGN.

Catalog description

This class will cover various readings and discuss inspiring regionalist essays by architects, landscape architects, philosophers, and others in order to shape a set of beliefs (an ideology) that can productively inform the student's trajectory as a creative designer. Students will learn how regionalism makes the life of a designer more interesting and fulfilling as new regional influences in diverse areas are absorbed and become continuing fodder for personal growth and creativity through a long career.
