This course has two required components. Students need to register for both when signing up for this course. There is a studio section for the asynchronous portions of the course and a workshop section for the required, synchronous components of the course. The meeting pattern that appears on the workshop section represents the actual times during which students will need to attend the synchronous portions of this course.This studio focuses on housing: through the analysis of history, type and precedents, through lectures and field trips, through study of housing's influence on urban form, and through focused design investigation. Disability codes, energy regulations, exiting requirements, and constructional systems become an integral part of the student work. Cultural and social factors that affect the design and use of housing are also included. A multi-family housing project is the final project of the semester.Students will be sorted into groups by the Chair of Undergraduate Architecture prior to the first course meeting.
