This advanced level undergraduate studio focuses on conceptual and/or design/build topics at the intersection of architecture with other disciplines. Studio options vary from year to year.SECTION DESCRIPTIONtranSTUDIO | Adaptive Thought, Design, and Fabrication (Materiality and Space 4)  is an interdisciplinary and innovative design studio at CCA.
Architecture must embrace adaptability and flexibility to sustain effectively, and to respond to the increasing demands for change, and to create a cooperative relationship between the building and its users. Adaptability helps to achieve a safe, healthy, responsive, and environmentally friendly building, and thus to ensure long-term use and value.
This studio will focus on Adaptable Design/Space. The Studio pursues (1) methods for exploring digital platforms within the context of innovative transformable building space that demonstrates morphological changes; (2) an interdisciplinary approach that encourages students to engage with emerging materials and tools for adaptable architecture and design; (3) the inherent properties of materials in exploring the development of transformable space; (4) the principles, theories, and applications that govern creative thought, from the formation of motion through the creation of a physical environment.
