COLLEGE OF DUPAGE ARCHITECTURE DESIGN + BUILD SUMMER STUDIO

DESIGN IS PROCESS

Design is process.  Refining a design is about exploring iterations.  Here is the process that occurred just today in the studio.  This is one studio of focused exploration.  (A lot more than this also happened today in studio)  We explored how to frame a typical bay, and then studied and refined cladding options.  You can see how the design progressed with each iteration.  

This is how design works.  You can’t start at the final iteration.  Design is a process.  Process yields development.  Design evolves.
This design will evolve.
