Two flatbeds delivered materials at the beginning of Studio today. Students began collecting and storing the materials which they will soon use to construct two Ritual Houses for installation at ARTPARK in Lewiston, NY. After half a semester of designing and preparing construction documents for their projects, studio groups will spend the rest of the semester working collectively to finalize their designs and bring their projects to life at full scale.
Ritual Space is a freshman architecture project that embraces the comprehensive studio model. Over the course of one year students learn to design and construct small wood joints that lead to full scale structural systems.
