Design Model Critique for Episodes of Modern Architecture
EPISODES OF MODERN ARCHITECTURE
Grace Ong Yan taught a recitation for episodes of modern architecture in the the University of Pennsylvania M.Arch program. The required architectural history course treated the modern era as thematic episodes. The main project was to research and design a series of "design models" that demonstrated not only an understanding of architectural theories and histories, but design skills.
