Course description - ARCH302 Architectural Design II (6 cr.) Studio. This studio builds upon the conceptual foundations and tectonic knowledge gained in previous studios to do projects of increasing scale and programmatic complexity. It promotes the student's ability to develop design solutions for human environments through a process of observation, analysis and synthesis. A greater level of design development must be accomplished as compared to earlier studios. Emphasis is on the integration of scales. This could be from furniture to architecture or from urban design to building components. Different studio sections may explore different projects, so some variation on the issues covered is acceptable. The studio stresses the command of verbal and visual communication through various media including 2D and 3D representation. Prerequisite: ARCH301.
