The technology requirements of the studio will include artfully developed details in five areas: sustainability—specific concerns regarding the control of natural light and water, structural systems—specific concerns regarding the space defining qualities of the integrated system, mechanical systems—specific concerns regarding energy efficiency, envelope systems—specific concerns regarding figuration and detail, and interior systems—specific concerns regarding the celebration and meter of finish materials. We will present a series of technical assignments that are to be completed as the design assignments are addressed. In many cases the technical assignments will have a limited immediate application to the larger design issues addressed at the same time; but, as we enter the next phase of design we will see that adjacent issues will become fundamental.

Assignments will be posted on the blog. Please keep an eye on it!
