STUDIO CRITIC, ARCH 4/584, INTERMEDIATE ARCHITECTURE DESIGN STUDIO. FINAL REVIEW.

Each term faculty review architecture and interior architecture design studio courses. Design studio courses are the centerpiece of the professional curricula through which courses students are required to fully resolve complex architectural design problems. In the Summer of 2008, for example, Hoa-Lan Tran reviewed the design studio project ‘The Oregon Heritage Track Center’, a project that corresponded with the U.S. Olympic Trials being held in Eugene at the same time. Students worked for ten weeks on individual resolutions of the project, seeking to successfully address, in a final aesthetically holistic design, a wide range of programmatic requirements, including housing, public performance spaces, training facilities, parking, circulation, banquet spaces, emergency access, etc., while also resolving technical issues (structure, environmental and construction systems). The course, ARCH 4/584 Architecture Design Studio, is a required course for all professional degree students in Architecture.
