Fall 2023

This seminar focuses on urbanism and architecture’s relationship with borders as political, ecological, and topological conditions. As key instruments in defining the logistics of space and territory, borders operate at multiple scales from the local to the global, and from the constructed to the imaginary. Students will explore how borders reinforce inclusion and exclusion in space, and how designers can engage with, and transform, border conditions as they navigate on the edge, margins, and thresholds in-between.
