Description

In this studio students extend their design and analysis abilities by preparing master plans for medium scale sites. Design proposals are developed as responses to site qualities and a program of uses, with a particular emphasis on the spatial, social and ecological qualities of the landscape. Students learn to integrate ecological, social and aesthetic considerations as part of the design process and are introduced to the concept of design for sustainability. There is an mphasis on developing, testing and communicating design concepts and extending presentation skills.
