Year 3 experimentation
Experimentation: Inquiry into an
approach that integrates design elements, theory, history, technical
knowledge, and life experiences into
a comprehensive design strategy
Morphologies: To explore the various scales and responsibilities of
landscape architecture and articulate critical elements of infrastructures, systems, and urban forms.
Groundwork: To introduce base
knowledge of landscape
architecture and create a
foundation for design and
professional awareness

Studio as experiment Noun: a test, trial, or tentative procedure; an act or operation for the purpose of discovering something unknown or of testing a principle, supposition, etc. Verb: to try or test, especially in order to discover or prove something
Beginning of semester– hope springs eternal

Places/stakeholders
Not in a lab or a controlled environment but the real (and most times) messy world Real places – real people – real issues, yet it can still result in the fantastic
Rules of engagement Client must understand that this is a studio and the studio is an experiment (sometimes a contract might be needed) Students must realize the issues of the client/place/program/context Client – students – professor must collaborate on the pragmatic teaching objectives as well as the serendipity of design process (sometimes it is purposeful and sometimes it just feels good) Client should be at a different place at the conclusion of the project

Studio 3 intent Water as system and framework for design with technical requirements – yet it is also magical (and the reason for life on the planet)
If there is magic on this planet,
it is contained in water. Loren Eisely, The immense Journey, 1957
