The Architecture of Schools of Architecture
This project analyzes the facilities of the studio component of the Architectural Studies program on the University of Pittsburgh campus in comparison with similar types of facilities elsewhere. It is based on research into the buildings of schools of architecture around the United States and specifically the requirements for productive and fulfilling studio activities for both students and instructors. Using digital modeling, it proposes improvements to the existing spaces at Pitt, currently located in Thaw Hall.
