Description:

M.Arch Studio 3 promotes a semester-long design research trajectory emphasizing the relationship of rigorous analysis to design. The specific exploration of the design of two disparate programmatic typologies within an urban situation - allows students to engage with complex architectural concepts and strategies as well as the complexities of contemporary urban form-making. In addition, the studio pursues a thematic study of how “recombinant explorations” and "typological thinking" can establish architectural relationships between diverse urban artifacts and widely-varied historical, conceptual, and physical contexts. The studio will work iteratively and use design as a form of research, with specific focus on how students make an architectural argument through design and supporting research. Students will experiment through drawings and models and evaluate their studies using a feedback loop between design and research as a way of developing the design processes and skills required in advanced studios.
