2nd Year
Second Year Studio Overview
First year developed building design skills through small-scaled interventions and introduced a wide range of representation and communication techniques. Second Year Studio builds upon these skills through a series of increasingly complex architectural projects. In the Fall we will design a small-scale civic project that will introduce many factors that contribute to architectural design in an urban context. These include designing with the community, public interest and equity, and integrating nature into the city. In the Winter quarter, the project will be larger, and the rural context will emphasize the connection between building and landscape. We’ll confront issues of environmental equity and learn how to situate buildings into sloped sites. In Spring quarter, students will design a complex, multi-unit building and synthesize social, environmental and economic issues. Second year studio is a place to build skills, ask questions, investigate and analyze information, to create designs that are thoughtful, beautiful, sustainable, inclusive and well-constructed.
