ARCH 2515EL

In this course the theme of LANDSCAPE is expanded to include architectural projects from the Italian villa to the work of Scarpa & Aalto to the High-Line project in New York City. The course examines case studies from Scandinavia and Iceland that incorporate the landscape as part of the architecture, as well as the notion of architecture as landscape. Indigenous and vernacular examples of living within the landscape, such as bermed houses, also form the basis for design projects. PREREQ: ARCH 1505, 1515 and 2505 (design studio inst, lec, and site visits), cr 6 (in Design stream)(taught afternoons).
