Course description - Excellent designs start with excellent preparation. Parti studies must be based on thorough examination of the investors, users, the public, and the site. This course introduces the four analyses that make for responsive design: cost analysis, code analysis, site analysis, and program analysis. It also explores the process of design as a consequence of effective “parti planning”. Prerequisite: None.
