    UNIT BRIEF:

    In-fill / Out-fits:
    Prototypes for Urban Dwelling

    Intermediate Unit 6 investigates the critical application of innovative digital design and construction processes within the context of the challenges that cities face today. Deploying fabrication-based design strategies within dense urban environments, we will develop architectural structures that negotiate their spatial and material configuration w ithin contexts of limited resources, infrastructure and space. Structuring the year into tw o interdependent phases, students w ill w ork collaboratively on the design and construction of 1:1 scale prototypes, as w ell as individually on the development of projects addressing contextual aspects such as program and site.

    Pending means something is ambiguous. It does not look quite right. You don’t think it is going to stand up. Where is the point of gravity? Let’s do a staircase opposite a staircase. We need an angle so that people can stand underneath. Oh I wouldnt want to stand underneath that structure. Oh ok, but we designed it. It looks quite fragile.
