ARCH 513 - Comprehensive Project Design Studio


Prerequisites: ARCH 331 , ARCH 332 , ARCH 333 , ARCH 413 , ARCH 416 , ARCH 435 
This studio will provide the opportunity for advanced students working individually and/or in small groups, to bring all components of their architectural education together to focus on an architectural design problem/project. Students will fully assess an architectural problem, designated site and relevant precedents in order to establish appropriate design criteria. Advancing the problem/project through conceptual, schematic and design development stages students will respond to programmatic, structural and environmental systems, accessibility and life-safety issues. They will advance their design resolution from site response, building materials and assemblies selection and attention to sustainable design criteria to the detailed development key spaces. Each individual or group will prepare construction contract documentation, drawings and outline specifications, for key components of the design project. Students will prepare a project assessment to evaluate the appropriateness of their problem/project design response to the architectural program and related cultural and environmental issues.
