本学期的作业是设计社区及私人场所。身为一个建筑师我们总是遇到两个主要的议题：如何创造一个空间使社区拥有愉悦的生活环境及良好的互动场所，并且实现人们渴望有美好居住空间的梦想。另一个关注的议题则是在土地或是大地环境中的建筑物。所谓大地环境包括土地、天空、空气、风、太阳，这些都会影响到我们的设计。建筑产生在天地之间，而本课程的设计者必须要考虑到这一点。我们也会寻找一些跟大地环境有所关连材料及构造，然后在形式上赋予它们建筑上的意涵。基于对材料/构造样式的了解，我们这才可以让建筑设计的想法成形。最后也是最重要的，我们将会了解并且回应使用者的想法及梦想。建筑是社会与文化的回响，它同时也影响到人们与周遭环境联结的方式。
本学期把一个专题分成三个部分。第一个部分是在波士顿附近的Rockport的一座废弃的采石场设计一个供观景的公共空间。重点在于如何设计一个供人遮蔽风雨、阳光、雪的设施，也就是在空中设计一个符合天空形式的顶盖，并且在地面设置符合大地形式的平台。
第二部分是在North End的建筑墙及屋顶上设计适合屋顶居民的公共场所。这是另一种土地的转化，我们将会将这个区域视同采石场一样。而建筑就如同采石场的边界。基地可以位于屋顶,，也可以在采石场/建物的边缘,，或是同时存在。我们会有足够的基地数量可以供学员挑选，每个学员必须选一个基地，然后设计一个给自己居住及工作的场所，同时假设自己现在起将在这里居住十年。因此建筑师不仅仅是跟天空、大地有关，还同时跟墙及屋顶有联系。
第三个部分是在同一个区域内的一个既定的基地为社区居民设计一个公共聚会场所。本计划是在不超过5000平方英尺的范围之内设计一栋小建筑物，其中包括会议间、工作间、起居室。这栋建筑物要由本课程的每个成员设计。然后在这栋建筑物的旁边必须设计一块地景空间，这空间必须能够跟周遭的自然产生关连，并且让你的社区以及在North End的邻居都能共享这块空间。
本课程的设计表现媒材包括：概念示意模型、概念示意图、按比例的全区建筑模型以及上学期使用的绘图方法。此外，我们也会以数位程式制作，像是Photoshop, PowerPoint等可以更有效说明设计的数位图像程式。

The work for the semester is the designing of places for community and privacy. These are always the two main issues that we have as architects: How to make spaces that can respond to the needs of the community for joyful livable places of interaction, and how to respond to the dreams of individuals to provide for a joyful livable place of their own. The second concern is building on the land, or earthtexture. Earthtexture includes land, sky, air, wind, sun, context - all of that influences what we design. Architecture happens in the space between the sky and land and the designs for the studio will always take this into account. We will also explore materials and structures that can relate to earthtexture and give architectural meaning to the forms. It is with an understanding of materials/structures that we can give form to our ideas of architecture. Finally, and most important, we will be understanding and reflecting the ideas and dreams of the people we are designing for. Architecture is an echo of our society and culture and at the same time it can influence the way that people relate to their surroundings.
There is one project for the semester but in three parts. The first part is designing an "observation community place" in an abandoned quarry in Rockport near Boston. The concern is how to design a cover for the sky - sky form - and a platform for the land - land form -that can give people shelter from the wind, sun, rain, snow.
The second part is to design places for a "community of individuals in the sky" on the rooftops and walls of buildings in the North End. This is another translation of land and we will treat the area as quarry, the buildings being sides of this quarry. Sites will be on roof tops, on sides of the quarry/buildings, or both. There will be as many sites as designers in the studio and each will be asked to pick a site -space- and design a place for themselves to live and work while projecting their lives ten years from now. Again the architecture must not only relate to the sky and land but also the attached walls or roof.
The last part is to design a "community meeting place" for members of a defined community on a site in the same area. The project is the making of a small building of not more than 5,000 square feet that might contain meeting places, work rooms, living places. The program for the building is to be designed by each studio member. Adjacent to this building will be a small "earthplace" a place related to nature that might be enjoyed by not only your community but others in the North End neighborhood.
The designing mediums will include sketch modeling, sketching, making of full size pieces of the building, and drawing methods that you used last semester. In addition we will be working in digital programs, such as Photoshop and PowerPoint, digital photo programs that can be useful in explaining your design.
Other issues for the semester:
-
The Making of the Space and Space Within
-
The Making of Large Scale and Human Size
-
The Making of Space and Place
-
The Making of Light and Shadow
