GRID 624 - Architectonics

An elective course intended as a multidisciplinary forum for the investigation, appreciation, and design of architectural space, structures, and systems. Using in-class exercises as a laboratory for creative and collaborative exchange, students learn and apply alternative design processes, design vocabulary, user-centered experience, and design. This course develops concepts and analytical studies of objects/spaces through various 2D and 3D drawing/modeling techniques and culminates in an actual built/altered environment. Meets with IDES 371. In order to receive graduate credit, graduate students are expected to exceed undergraduate course expectations by applying the skills and competencies outlined in the syllabus to graduate-level concepts that typically relate to their major program of study. In this regard, graduate students taking this graduate elective are required to meet with the instructor prior to the start of class to determine and outline the nature of the requirements to be met. Formerly ID 612
