2011F_Design Studio_Perez Guembe Section
Arch-2200 | Elena Perez Guembe, Adjunct Professor Mars: An Architecture of Terra-formation Selected Student Work: How do we teach new architecture students to achieve the synthesis of conceptual strength, realizable form, and compelling expression? My intention as a design instructor is to guide students in their definition and elaboration of clear theoretical underpinnings that can […]
2011F_Design Studio_Rehm Section
ARCH-2200 | Casey Rehm, Adjunct Professor Mars: An Architecture of Terra-formation Selected Student Work: The studio focused on production of space and form through the use of nonlinear transformation and mutation with an emphasis on local tectonic relationships as the driving force for decision making. Students worked with an abstract material system in which each student […]
2011F_Design Studio_Dayem Section
ARCH-2200 | Adam Dayem, Adjunct Professor. Mars: An Architecture of Terra-formation. Selected Student Work: The basis of formal and conceptual development in this studio was a set of interlocking wood joint components. Joints were devised as relational conditions based on geometric affiliations between parts. Specific geometry built into the wood beca a type of information guiding […]
