This studio addressed the challenges of design in the city of Berlin, Germany; most notably the historic Museum Island. The aim of this course was to develop a hybrid community center while fine-tuning architectural drafting skills, problem solving techniques, and establishing deeper thematic connections within design. Through research, collage, and model studies we produced designs individual to our own motifs, pushing these ideas and designs throughout the semester. This studio emphasized not only the accuracy of drafting by hand, but the importance of materiality, structural soundness, and accessibility.
