Description:

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.SECTION DESCRIPTION"Studio 4 teaches students how to use architectural design techniques to influence social life and political forces from the domestic to the urban scale. Working across scales ranging from the home to the neighborhood, the studio links urban protocols and domestic rituals to a critical examination of form and the social performance of architectural thresholds."
