Welcome back students from last semester, and thanks to all of the new faces for taking an interest in our efforts. We jumped right in with a two fold exercise focused on ways of indexing, and basic color theory (see attached). Later this month the class will return to NYC to visit a number of exceptional interiors, a prefab manufacturer in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, along with friends at the Alcoa Foundation and Resource Furniture.
The goal for the semester is simple: highly detailed design on net zero energy interior environments, and further research in the area of building envelop performance.
