Academic housing is a critical pedagogic tool lying at the center of the creation and dissemination of knowledge. This two-day program explores the synthesis of living and learning environments and the emerging factors influencing their future planning and design.

This program presents a detailed and explicit model addressing the evolving dynamic of a value‐centered and high performance design method.

The class will look at cultural events as a powerful tool of Urban Design. The production of culture is most often cited as an indicator of urban vibrancy, but it can also be understood as a primary shaper of the urban environment, of its identity, and the ways that people move in and around it. We will look at a few case studies of Urban Ephemera and consider how they have reshaped their urban environment.
