COURSE OVERVIEW: The Arch 3 + Siteworks studio consists of two equally weighted components: an architectural studio and an associated studio on the project site that deals with site impact of the building as well as explores the design opportunities for the larger context. The course focuses on translating a concise conceptual statement into a design proposal based on a design manifesto

DESIGN INTENTION: To propose a design intervention at Sunset Waterfront Park in Brooklyn, NY which is responsive to context and human occupation based on the specifics of the program. The proposal must address at least one social and one environmental issue - to be developed from your critical and detailed site analysis. The intervention is to be established at two scales with clear architectural concepts: (1) an urban/landscape intervention and (2) an architectural one.
