Covert Inhabitations


The final project for the semester will be to create an architectural installation that is developed at full-scale and utilizes digital fabrication processes. As the School of Architecture continues to struggle to identify space for prototyping at full-scale, the need to approach the problem as a series of iterations will force us to consider portability, mobility and fabrication efficiency.

Utilizing the courtyard/plaza as a site, we will begin to analyze the situation for fabricating at full-scale. Each team will coordinate with the studio and analyze the space(s) and create measured documentations for the entire courtyard/plaza.

Final site documentation will include:

1. Site Model
a. digital
b. physical

2. 2-d drawings
a. plan
b. sections
c. elevations (interior + exterior)

3. photographs
a. collages
b. panoramic

This is due Monday March 27, 2009
