Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness. - Frank Gehry
This semester, students will investigate the concept of time and the various ways it is represented by architecture. Projects will allow students the opportunity to explore a variety of conditions in which time is a central theme of design. This variety also permits an overview of the ways that architecture changes across time and an understanding of the forces that shape those changes. Topics this semester will include:
- Historic trends and patterns in domestic architecture (the house)
- Landscape architecture
- Domestic architecture of the future
- Design for self-sufficiency and protection in an apocalyptic future
