Program: MArch 3
Class: ARCH 603: DIGITAL DESIGN-BUILD STUDIO
Critic: LOU BOZA
Description: Using the design-build model as a method for learning, we were exposed to both traditional means and methods of construction and the most innovative digital design and computer/numeric-controlled fabrication technologies. The project was to design a semi-private space for the student body administration. So we created a perforated wall that wrapped around a lounge on a mezzanine and also created laminated furniture all using a CNC cutter. This resulted in an enjoyable space that students were comfortable approaching.
