ARCH 2010 - Site Design


Credits: 3

This course introduces students to the climatic, cultural, and geographical systems and elements that are encountered in the analysis of site conditions, understanding their interrelationship and what procedures are required to maintain or improve the quality of the site environment. Through a series of exercises and projects, students will explore the relationship between land use and architectural design and gain hands on experience by applying aspects of site context, orientation, natural and cultural features, topography and grading, and regulatory issues, all leading to site selection and an ecological approach to site design.

Prerequisite: ARCH 1005
