Term 2, 2011 Final Crit

It was great to see everyone who turned out for the term II final crit this Saturday at the CLA offices on Herald street. Thanks again to Christine for making this great space available to us. Thanks also to the mentors and guest crits who donated their time and experience.

Congratulations to Gail on her final Thesis presentation! A real achievement and an inspiration to the rest of us following along behind.

PRESENTATIONS

D4 - Communal Habitat

The D4 studio introduces students to issues of design in an urban context and continues previous explorations of amenity, space, light, view, privacy, access and circulation as they relate to design for communal living.

D8 - Urban and Environmental Design


The D8 studio is the last of the design studios focusing major building types. It introduces students to principles of urban theory, environmental considerations and design of multiple housing types. Students are required to further develop their powers of observation and interpretation and to develop a critical approach to thinking on the question "what makes a city".

D9B - Thesis Program and Design Development

The Thesis is the culmination of the Syllabus program and requires students to undertake a major work of their own choice. The project typically results in an architectural solution to a stated theoretical position and includes development of an architectural program, data analysis, concept exploration, schematic design, design development and final presentations.
