Intersections Between the Academy and Practice

Intersections Proceedings

Author(s): Aaron Brakke & Rodrigo Velasco

The context of this paper is found in an environment that aims to better bridge the academy and practice. What the authors provide in the following pages is a reflection of how undergraduate students are being guided to better understand how an architect might interpret and design for particular geographic and climatic situations. This is accomplished through both traditional and digital techniques that first aim to provide the foundation
necessary to first analyze the geometric considerations for the building facade.
