In this course students will learn the basic language of design - design elements, and principles for arranging these elements in compositions that are unified and generate emotion. Students learn how responses to the urban environment can be recorded, and how they can be used to develop urban design policies.
Course work involves lectures, in-class exercises, site visits, discussions, and critiques.
