    Description
    A design studio based on the Bauhaus Foundation Course that explores the many aspects of visual and spatial design leading to studied solutions in architecture. Concepts include black and white forms and negative space, communication through shapes, textures, color and materials, graphic design and typeface fonts, anthropometrics and designing for human scale. Studio will focus on designing and model building architecture for a specific building type and site, including climatic adaptation, native and locally produced materials, concepts of green design and LEED certification, creating human scaled spaces, and designing functional architectural solutions.
