ARCH 130BBasic Design and Research II
This architectural design studio is organized around exercises in precedent research and analysis, site analysis, response to building program and the integration of research into design proposals. Students will learn to present evidence of reasoned solutions to design problems and explain and defend their design decisions in a graphic form. The students will learn to visually communicate architectural ideas. The students will design, detail, and represent their building proposals at various scales in response to the analysis and research. They will plan, draw, and model their proposals, in their site context and present their design(s) to their peers and faculty for critical comments, discussion, and review. This course will emphasize ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology) outcomes: - "an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data," - "an ability to communicate effectively," (ABET/Criteria for ABET Programs, 2007, p. 2).
