The 2nd year introductory architectural design studios explore comprehensive and foundational design principles, skill sets, and critical thinking.  The material covered through the fall and spring semesters is presented through a series of lectures, projects, exercises, workshops, symposia and reviews which involve the beginning design student in the thoughtful application of fundamental design principles, foundational techniques of representation and fabrication and comprehensive critical design strategies.  These courses foster the development of the beginning design student’s design methodology founded on thoughtful, creative, ethical and rigorous work practices in service of exploring meaningful formal and spatial propositions.  (Y)
