In this seminar we study the two sides of our experiences with buildings: the cognitive / intellectual (thinking) side and the emotional / psychological (feeling) side. The purpose of the study is to develop a set of objectives and criteria, as well as a design method, that can guide decision-making for architects designing buildings.

Course Description

The 3031/6031 design studio provides an increased focus on the material reality of buildings—linking material selection, detail and assembly to design concepts and the intended experiential presence of a building. Principals of programmatic organization and the integration of building plan, section and elevation will also be emphasized. The studio will extend and reinforce the lessons, themes and skills of previous design studios and will be important preparation for the "Integrated Studio" required the following spring.
