ARCH 1110 Introduction to Architecture: Design Studio
Course description
Designed to introduce students to ideas, principles, and methods of solving architectural problems in a studio setting. Through a graduated sequence of exercises culminating in a major semester project, students explore the architectural concepts of space, form, function, and technology. Instruction is via highly personalized critiques of individual student work by assigned department faculty members, as well as periodic reviews of the group by invited faculty and guest critics. The grade is based on the overall performance in the studio with special emphasis on the quality of a major studio project.
Enrollment limited to: Non-architecture majors. A toolkit containing most of the supplies you need for this course will be available for order from the Cornell Store in late Spring. Preordered supplies will be delivered to you in the architecture studio on your first day of class. Note that you might also need to purchase additional supplies from the Cornell Store after your course starts, depending upon your individual project requirements.
Precollege high school students: You must also register for ARCH 1300: An Introduction to Architecture: Lectures.
This course is part of the Introduction to Architecture Summer Program.
