The goal of this course is to provide an introduction to the architectural design process by using various representational strategies and conventions to examine spatial relationships and the qualities that define space itself. The studio is structured as a series of projects that simultaneously develop technical skills and conceptual thinking. Paradoxically, designing “nothing” means removing from the design process issues of cultural aesthetics, social systems, environmental ecology, and narrative. Yet, one might ask, what are we then left with? Is it possible to structure a discussion about space around… nothing?
