Far Away Up Close
This studio focused upon the themes of distance, measure and the “materiality of abstraction.” Beginning with a series of 3 preliminary exercises, students explored the interplay among different sizes and scales, and researched a variety of spatial typologies in which the terms and coordinates of one geographical location are imported into the setting of another- such embassies, world fair pavilions, and gardens.
The second part of the semester was organized around the design of a post office with additional uses that provided sites of public encounters as determined by each student.
