1GB Design Studio II Instructor : David Eskenazi Spring 2017
This course is a continuation and expansion of the fundamental issues of architecture introduced in the first studio of the core sequence. The interrelationship between geometry, form, tectonics, and materiality is explored as it relates to overarching organizational systems and emergent systemic behaviors driven by programmatic content, structural logics and physical setting. Program and structure are considered to be creative components of design rather than fixed entities. Students are given the Emerging Professionals Companion along with updated Intern Development Program (IDP) information. The working methodologies introduced in 1GA are expanded and refined to allow each student to continue to developing conceptual frameworks and productive techniques for the creation of architecture. As the first part of the Graduate Program’s Comprehensive Design Sequence, this course challenges students to design both site and buildings accommodating individuals with varying physical disabilities.

1GA Design Studio I Instructor : Hsinming Fung Fall 2016
The first studio in a sequence of four foundation studios, this course introduces the student to fundamental issues of architecture. Through the study of the interrelationship of geometry, form, tectonics, and materiality, students are asked to continually develop and reconsider strategies for the production of architecture. The studio aims to endow students with a range of fundamental working methodologies. Through generative drawing, iterative material studies, generative modeling, descriptive drawing and analytical mapping and diagramming, students are expected to develop an intellectual framework as well as productive techniques for the development of spatial organizations, architectural forms and structural systems.

1GB Visual Studies The course forms the continuation of Techniques of Representation 1 by expanding on the conceptions of representational tools, emphasizing diagramming and spatial representations, and incorporating site analysis, topography and three-dimensional realizations. The program focuses on developing precision of intentions in the production of architectural drawings and instilling a critical sensitivity for the inherent bias and interface of each deployed medium of representation.

1GA Visual Studies The course examines the theories and practices of representation and analysis of architectural ideas. It is structured to introduce the primary and auxiliary tools necessary to analyze and translate spatial concepts into two-dimensional representations. Students generate descriptive work using planar, plan/section, and axonometric projections as well as free hand and digital drawing tools and develop an understanding of specific characterstics and application potentials.
