Architecture Detailing

Ohkay Owingeh, New Mexico, USA Architectural Detailing Elective / ARC 6912 / Fall 2020

This course provided an introduction to the complexity that is creating detailed drawings in the profession. For the final project, the class was tasked with creating a detailed wall section using any current or previous work done. This project involves a reimagined adobe house from an undergraduate project in the pueblo of Ohkay Owingeh, New Mexico. Using reinforced concrete as the main structure, the design proposal intends to bring the charm of the pueblo with the incorporation of terracotta tiles into the building’s envelope.
