Architecture Team


Every lab room has 7 teams. I have a separate post for each team with quotes from the status reports. I would like the students to speak for themselves so I have picked out a selection of comments to show the variety in design approaches.

architecture:
“ Our goal is to design a building that blends into the community chosen by the urban planning group. We also hope to design a building that promotes community within itself. That is to say that we want to design our building to help the people living there to create friendships with those around them.”

“ The main problem that the team was encountering is that it hard to design the outside layout according to the restrictions being put in place by local zoning laws.”

“To design a functional yet visually pleasing structure that will be structurally sound but that will also synergize with the neighborhood.”
