YAr ch Summer Ar chitectur e Pr ogr am For individuals who are keen to pursue a career in architecture and design, the YArch program is a rigorous pathway. With a thorough curriculum, studio was introduced alongside tools, techniques, fundamental concepts, and architectural design ap& proaches. Through lectures, discussions, tutorials, pinups, and other activities, successive studio exercises were built upon in hk]^k mh ik^l^gm ma^ ]bl\biebg^ l [Zlb\l pabe^ ]^o^ehibg` Zg Zk& chitectural concept. Participants became familiar with widely applicable design principles, key terms, software applications (such as Photoshop, Illustrator and Rhino), model creation, and more.

Students, then, underwent a rigorous process of identifying found forms as part of their studio work, which was later mold& ed into the design project brief.

SURFACE S WATCH S TUDY YArch Summer Architecture Program July 2022

The development of an interior design approach was dicussed through a series of exercises. Through abstraction and the blending of unconventional model build& ing elements, the interior surface treatment was prodced. Key elements including texture, color, pattern, and shape, among others, received special consideration.

S WATCH SERIES This series of swatches ex& plores the combination of ebg^Zk Zg] Ü^qb[e^ fZm^kbZel to create new textures. The materials were selected to produce new effects in ser& vice of creating an fresh, l\Ze^]&]hpg lnk_Z\^ lmkZm^& gy. The swatches were pho& tographed and traced out in Rhino to further comprehend their surfaces.

With the initial swtch studies, focus is turned to formal features and how an object interacts with its environment. Using Sol Le& Pbmm l +- ?hkfl =^kbo^] ?khf : <n[^ % ma^l^ _hng] _hkfl are transformed into primitive buildings, exploring their ability mh _ng\mbhg Zl Zg Zkmblm l \Z[bg' Makhn`a Z l^kb^l h_ l\kbim^] ^q& ercises, the design process centers around the idea of invention through the reuse, interpretation and representation of found forms and materials.

F ORMAL ECCENTRICIT Y The Sol Lewit form is an eccentric pyramid which is paired with a swatch consisting of linear materials that enhances its shape. The wooden materials used, largely blend with the environment but occasional& ly disrupt the form to create seating, windows and distinguish facades. The light materials allow for a ieZr pbma mkZgliZk^g\r Zg] Ühp \k^Zmbg` Z l^k^g^ Zm& mosphere. The steep roof escalates higher allowing eb`am mh Ûee ma^ khhf bg Z `kZ]b^gm makhn`a ma^ leZm^] windows. The windows combined with the protruding slats of the swatch create uniform and gentle shad& ows on both interior and exterior of the cabin.
