2012S_Arch Design 3_Saunders Section

ARCH-2230 | Andrew Saunders, Assistant Professor Architecture Design 3: Housing Complex[ity] Selected Student Work: One of major criticisms of modern housing projects has been the repetitive homogenous nature and the disregard for complexity and non-hierarchical heterogeneity. Much of this arises out of the closed compositional nature of many of the early projects resisting integration and or […]
