My Courses
CROSSBLOGS ARCH1110 / ARCH1191 FALL2014
Visual Studies I is taken in tandem with ARCH 1110: Architectural Design I: Foundations to introduce the language of architectural representation and visualization, providing students with the techniques and skills to perceive visual cues, make aesthetic evaluations, translate information into graphic representation, create visual design, and formulate and render concepts in two or three dimensions. This course introduces basic skills for the manipulation of freehand and digital images, models, and data, and includes an introduction to computer systems, file management, word processing and spreadsheets, scanning and image editing.
Building Technology IIII
ARCH 4709 (Beauty & the Beast III)
“Beauty and the Beast” deals with digital deformation. Two possible starting points are initially provided to students: a machine and an organic form. The aim is to achieve new, digital-driven compositions confined by the input’s essence, all the while employing beauty, complexity and entropy as the main developing tools in the process. The objective is for students to identify relationships with what is essential in everyday objects as they venture away from the original morphology. It is through excess in the deviations that the students are able to visualize the incomes and outcomes with newly knowledgeable eyes.
