ARPL 202 Architectural Design I
This studio continues to explore the Fundamental Language of Architecture. Students are expected to use and build on the knowledge gained in ARPL 101,102, 201 and the history sequence. More specifically, ARPL 202 introduces architectural problems addressing essential spatial, formal, material, and experiential dimensions of architecture. The goal is to develop a student's foundational theoretical, methodological, and communicational toolbox through a synthetic and analytical series of disciplined, systematic and open-ended design tasks involving a range of media (sketching, drafting, modeling and digital image editing / 3D). The studio uses simple programs on real locations (urban or landscape) to teach how to respond to site, program, building type, environment, and ideas through the pursuit of an all-encompassing scheme or parti.
