This studio probes the material, organizational and spatial qualities of the line—architecture’s most fundamental element. Through iterative and digital processes which engage light and air as their main references, students integrate drawing
and making to construct and reconstruct lines in both virtual and physical space, and in two and three dimensions. Materialization of digital processes is tested through multiple full-scale, physical models. Through the act of making and remaking constructed lines, students oscillate between intuitive and critical modes of thinking, while further developing foundation-level design skills including analytic drawing, digital fabrication and issues relating to scale and site specificity. A required fee of $75 to cover group-supplied materials is charged at the time of registration. Students may require additional supplies as well and are responsible for purchasing them directly. Enrollment limited to 15.Prerequisite: ARS 280 or permission of the ins
