  1. The making of architecture I+S+bd+kc+kp+ft=arch Where I = Ideas S = situation Bd = basic design principles Kc = knowing construction Kp = knowing partners Ft = follow through Arch = areal chance

  2. Architecture is: A state of the achievement of an ideal where the ideal becomes present and can direct the development of space, light, materials and systems to meet the professional duties entrusted to the architect by the public.

  3. Fundamentally, the university is a place where knowledge is made from discovery The faculty are engaged in the discovery and ordering of facts and intuitions to support and provoke the construction of knowledge The students are engaged in personal discovery, ordering, and reflecting on facts and intuitions to construct a map that allows them a confidence to publicly assert “I am here” the integrity to privately acknowledge “I need to be there” and the knowledge, discipline and commitment to chart a course to their destination

Jones P&E Root Furness Sullivan B. Goff Thoreau Wagner Emerson Gehry A. Gray H. Greene Dow No poet, no artist of any kind, has their complete meaning alone. Their significance, their appreciation is the appreciation of their relation to the poets and artists that prepared the ground for them. To proceed to a more intelligible exposition of the relation of the poet to the past: one can neither take the past as a lump, an indiscriminate bolus, nor can one form themselves wholly on one or two private admirations, nor can one form themselves wholly on one preferred period. (after Eliot, Tradition and the Individual Talent)

  5. Function Systems Place Collective Construction The City Regional Material Tradition Craft Manufacture Color Multi-national The Environment Individual Economy Innovation Form Space Idea

  6. From the body of your work: • Build a map • Find out where you’ve been on the map • Find out which direction you’ve been moving • Set a course towards a destination • Update the map • Update your location • Update your course • Adjust your course • Repeat regularly

  7. Tactical resources: Stacking Latticing Lofting Trussing Corrugating

  8. Beyond quantity and function lies the qualitative realm of architecture. Principles of design: make difference, differentiate align rotate repeat compose proximately make whole transform translate
