The Architectural Mediums Primer is a 2-week intensive studio workshop environment for incoming M.Arch/MLA/MS Arch/MS UD students to prepare for future design studios at the GA/LA/UD. There are no prerequisites for this course and it is intended to facilitate a smooth transition for students of all levels and abilities. Throughout the two weeks, you will work through a series of exercises toward an architectural product. These exercises will explore computational and representational tools, as well as methods for outputting physical models using fabrication techniques.

The workshop also features a MLA-specific section focusing on Landscape Mediums. The emphasis in this section is on skill-building and preparation for entry into the Master of Landscape Architecture program. The course provides a foundation of skills and techniques ranging from landscape analysis and representation, to digital modeling and making.

Course Goal(s)

  • To prepare students for first-semester studio with a select set of media and representation skills
  • To gain an understanding of drawing and representing an architectural section and plan
  • To acquire a foundation knowledge of representation topics in architectural history
  • To become familiar with architectural representation to produce and analyze an architectural project
