The initial half of the building studio began with an independent study of a chosen building, the New Glenstone Museum. The study included three focus areas: the structure’s connection to the ground, its envelope, and the roof. A majority of the study included the replication of technical details of the museums materiality. The digital construction process began by understanding various technical connections between assemblies and their materials. The detailed drawings improved for eight weeks as group reviews and professorial meetings transpired. Through the technical understanding of the three focus areas design positions were able to be formed for the remainder of the semester.
